I though E is for Enough? enough to go to petrol pump, if E = empty your cannot more already.

what is the difference between half full and half empty?
I normally pump when the meter shows F (finish)

Damn you're funny. But you're right. F=finish. E=enough.

some myth..

pump at nite to reduce gas evaporation
but according to some.. the land surrounding the tank is still hot (even it is night already).. so no difference.

i suggest pump during the day (early in the morning)..
coz.. according to my myth.. the land surrounding the tank is still cold..  so the gas will less evaporate to the thin air.

yeap yeap, i pump in the morning too.

Hmm .. in my opinion, normally I will make sure if possible go for full tank and to my surprise it can last longer rather than pumping half or quarter fill of the tank only. unsure.gif
But so far .. it works for my side here.

Cheers ~

When you feel need to, then pump. For city folks, pump at half tank is the safest, in case of traffic jam.

What's the best time to pump? Dawn will be, because ground temperature is cold, hence you'll pump more petrol. And remember to adjust to slow mode.

I agree with you.
but i wonder the difference significant enough? Has anyone pumped at dawn and in hot-afternoon and accurately measure the differences?

IMO, it's better to pump early in the morning when the temperature is much cooler ~ I always pump during that early hour ~

However, if tak sempat to wait better go and pump first anytime of the day as needed~
