刚刚收到的E-MAIL，拿出来和大家分享，希望可以帮助各位在油价高涨的时候，省下那么一点点！

*Did you know this??  AVOID GAS & VAPOR !!
*
*TIPS ON PUMPING GAS INTO YOUR VEHICLE AT GAS STATIONS.

I don't know what you guys are paying for gasoline in your part of the rest of the world, but here in California we are also paying higher, up to $3.50 per gallon.
*But my line of work has been in petroleum industry for about 31 years now, so here are some tricks to get more of your money's worth for every gallon. Here at the Kinder Morgan Pipeline where I work, they deliver about 4 million gallons in a 24-hour period thru the pipeline. One day its diesel the next day its jet fuel, and gasoline, regular and premium grades. We have 34-storage tanks here with a total capacity of 16,800,000 gallons.
*
*TIP # 01:  Only buy or fill up your car or truck in the early morning when the ground temperature is still cold. Remember that all service stations have their storage tanks buried below ground. The colder the ground the more dense the gasoline, when it gets warmer gasoline expands, so buying in the afternoon or in the evening....your gallon is not exactly a gallon. It has expanded relative to the ambient temperature!!

*In the petroleum business, the specific gravity and the temperature of the gasoline, diesel and jet fuel, ethanol and other petroleum products plays an important role.  A one degree rise in temperature is a big deal for this business. But the service stations do not have temperature compensation at the pumps.

*TIP # 02:  When you're filling up do not squeeze the trigger of the nozzle to a fast mode. If you look you will see that the trigger has three (3) stages: low, middle, and high. In slow mode you should be pumping on low speed, thereby minimizing the vapors that are created while you are pumping. All hoses at the pump have a vapor return. If you are pumping on the fast rate, some of the liquid that goes to your tank becomes vapor. Those vapors are being sucked up and back into the underground storage tank so you're getting less worth for your money.
*
*TIP # 03: One of the most important tips is to fill up when your gas tank is HALF FULL or HALF EMPTY. The reason for this is, the more gas you have in your tank the less air occupying its empty space. Gasoline evaporates faster than you can imagine. Gasoline storage tanks have an internal floating roof. This roof serves as zero clearance between the gas and the atmosphere, so it minimizes the evaporation. Unlike service stations, here where I work, every truck that we load is temperature compensated so that every gallon is actually the exact amount.
*
*TIP # 04: Another reminder, if there is a gasoline truck pumping into the storage tanks when you stop to buy gas, DO NOT fill up--most likely the gasoline in the ground storage is being stirred up as the gas is being delivered, and you might pick up some of the dirt that normally settles on the bottom. Hope this will help you get the most value for your money.
*
*DO SHARE THESE TIPS WITH OTHERS who may benefit also!
*Be a little bit GREANER !!
*Have More Gratitude than Attitude!

大家应该搞一个before and after comparison, 这里的每个人正常的加一次，然后用你的方法加一次，我们把用不同排气量的车做一个比较。

谢谢lz的批准，这个周末我要发帖子搞一个“省油方法大调查“，倒是大家支持一下。谢谢阿。

作者: dec05 时间: 2008-3-14 15:39:38 标题: 回复 #15 z-score 的帖子

好的！

可是，要不要计算公里数，手拨/自动车，或者其他的东西呢？

作者: 关键词 时间: 2008-3-14 15:42:17

不用发贴了，最后你会发现最省油的方法是骑自行车。。.hehe

是的，谢谢你的建议，我会把这些都放到帖子里。

作者: dec05 时间: 2008-3-14 15:55:28 标题: 回复 #17 关键词的帖子

如果我骑自行车，还不如早上和我房东一起走呢！

可我要上课啊！

作者: 关键词 时间: 2008-3-14 16:02:25

早点走就行啦。....

作者: dec05 时间: 2008-3-14 16:13:01

我跟我房东走的话，我上班的时间就不够了！更不方便我去上课了！
