YOGYAKARTA - Many think the best time filled with gasoline should be done at night. The reason is that if it is done during the day, the fuel stored in the car tank will experience evaporation due to the heat of sunlight.
That's why many people believe that refueling for vehicles should be done at night. At night, the temperature becomes lower so that the evaporation is not compared to during the day.
It is also believed that lower temperatures at night can make fuel decrease or be denser. That way, the volume of fuel that enters the engine tank of the car will also increase.
On that basis, many consumers deliberately charge fuel at night, assuming that the fuel filled is more. If there are more, it will certainly make fuel more efficient and in conclusion, spending is more efficient.
However, is the reality really like that? Instead of assuming about it, here are the facts to know!
To find out when the best time is filled with gasoline, Pertamina also provides an explanation of the assumptions that are spread among these residents.
Launching from Gridoto, Putut Andriatno as the Corporate Secretary of PT Pertamina Patra Nia narrated that basically fuel has a character following changes in the surrounding environment temperature.
For Putut, the difference in temperature does affect the density of fuel in the form of liquids, but it does not really affect the volume of fuel itself. In other words, the volume of fuel actually tends to be the same either at night or during the day.
He also emphasized to consumers, if there is no best time filling gasoline. Consumers should immediately refuel if the vehicle needs it.
Currently, Pertamina sells fuel, namely Pertalite with an octane score of 90, Pertamax 92 and Pertamax Turbo with an octane value of 92.
On the other hand, for diesel fuel, namely Solar, there is Pertamina Dex with a value of centane 53, Dexlite with a value of centane 52, and Bio Solar with a value of centane 48.
Tips Knowing Gas Station Cheating When Filling Fuel
The first way to identify fraudulent gas stations is to check the meter numbers at the gas station when the officers fill up the fuel. Make sure the meter numbers at the gas station filling machine start from the O number. After filling up the fuel, make sure you also check the poisisi of the last number in the refueling machine according to the amount you bought.
The way to avoid charging fuel at gas stations that cheat is to see the nozzle (the end of the gas outlet). Currently, the nozzle is automatic so that gasoline will stop according to the dose. But if the nozzle is manual, you must pay attention to when the officers stop charging.
Try refueling by shaking the fuel tank. This step is taken so that the tank is filled perfectly because when the motorbike is filled with fuel there may be air entering and a position tilted. Also try to position the middle or upright standard motorcycle. This can also maximize fuel filling.
