Walk, don"t run, be cautious- and Gasoline and Alcohol don"t mix. accidents are bad, period.
66 gallons for 1 car, if a car makes 3 pit stops in a race, and it holds 22 gallons of fuel then ill round up to 66 gallons.
The mechanic is using a siphon to transfer the gasoline from the car's tank to the drum. By creating a pressure difference between the two ends of the tube, gravity helps to move the gasoline from the higher tank to the lower drum. This method is simple and effective for emptying liquids from one container to another.
siphon gasoline it only works if he lowers the plastic tube lower then the level of gasoline it pulls the fluid out by gravity. it works better to drain the gas if there is a drain plug though
Yes if your tank is empty but not if it has some diesel in it, But not if your car runs on gasoline.
t will work if only half the tube is filled so a column of air will be trapped between both ends. As the gasoline in the tube flows out of the tube, it pulls the column of air between gasoline and the other end inserted into the tank creating a suction effect. The empty barrel has to be lower because as gasoline inside the tank is drawn into the tube, gravity has to take over to make the gasoline flow downward.
It has to be done safely because if it isn't you and the building will burn to death. WHy you do it is usually to repair the tank or change the fuel pump.
It'll have to be at a lower level than the car's gas tank, although, in reality, he would have to remove the fuel tank, disconnect the neck (as modern cars come with an anti-siphon neck), and either place the fuel tank at a higher point than the receptacle, or else use a vacuum pump (with diesel fuel, it's fine to use an electric one, and that's what we do at my shop.. gasoline is much more volatile, though).
Try to fill the tank with gasoline and fuel injector cleaner in order to dilute the fuel present in the tank which may be causing the problem.
gallons
OK well first of all the tube has to be lower than the tank for this to work but anyway gravity pulls out the gasoline from the tube into a bucket or can or whatever, and this creates a vacuum which needs to be filled with something, because the other end is submerged in gasoline that is what fills the vacuum, this is a continuous effect until there is nothing with an appropriate mass to fill the void (e.g air)
Don't start your car. Get a mechanic to come and take out the gas tank in your car. empty it and clean it out. Also clean out the pipes that go to the tank when you fuel your car. If you have started your car you will have to take out your pistons and clean them and clean all of your fuel pipes.
a car bomb
I went to the gas station to get some gasoline for my truck. Without gasoline in the tank, the car wouldn't run.
