Saving money on fuel
I hate to know that fuel price is skyrocketing again. The increase is global, not in Malaysia only. I don’t understand a single damn thing that the government in Malaysia said about spending the fuel wisely.
What the hell! Do you seriously think that we spend our petrol or fuel recklessly when the fuel is so expensive? You think we are driving our cars aimlessly. You got to be kidding. We have tried and are still trying to cut down any unnecessary usage.
With the fuel price increased, everything in the market increases spontaneously. We had tried our best to spend wisely. Now the price hit RM2.70 per liter, how many of us can survive this extremity. The only thing that didn’t increase is the salary and it is not going to increase for sure.
Tips to save your money on fuel:
1. Fill your car early in the morning
a. Why?
b. This is because at lower temperature, hence colder environment, the fuel is denser and you maximise your benefits as when the temperature increase, the petrol will expand and you won’t pump the exactly amount. This mean in the hot afternoon, your one litre is not exactly a litre.
c. Can’t understand?
d. This is because in the world of petroleum business, a small degree of temperature change is a big deal to the business.
2. When filling fuel, do not squeeze the trigger of the nozzle to a fast mode. Set a lower mode as this can minimise the vapours created during pumping. If you pump too quickly, more vapours will build up and you are not getting worth of fuel.
a. Why?
b. In physics, the vapour created will occupy certain percentage of your car fuel tank.
3. Because of reason 2, it is recommended to fill your car when your tank is half full.
a. Why?
b. This is because less empty space will be occupied by the air. Note that petrol evaporates at high rate and this can have big impact of the amount you actually pump.
