Won't it be heavier for the car for it to be between full and half full? Thus increasing car load? Thus increase FC? It might be saving a few cents by "minimizing evaporation" but then you will waste more money in FC.

P.S. TS never add 1 more (Which is obviously from a fwded e-mail  laugh.gif) : Use only RON92 petrol

how heavy is heavy? when ur car is around half tank and since the inside of the fuel tank is vacumm, the fuel and the atmosphere will create a equilibrium between liquid fuel and gas smile.gif
the remaining fuel will become gas to make up the open space and there u go, lesser fuel for engine combustion.. i dont know how to explain properly sorry u can read more on Le Chatelier's principle
besides, i tried 0~100 same road same weather.. the only diffrence is full tank and 1/4 tank.. almost no significant changes on the sprint time

i dont say my theory will be 100% correct.. i stand to be corrected smile.gif
btw, when u pump full tank and use until almost kosong, when u open the fuel cap u can feel tonnes of gas rushing out
