Many drivers do not visit gas stations until the fuel level sensor is triggered.
Such motorists are confident that in this case there will be enough fuel to get to the station.
Is this strategy correct? Of course not!
It is better to refuel in a timely manner. You should not drive a car with an almost empty tank. After all, there is a risk of facing the following consequences:
Driving a car with an almost empty fuel tank can seriously damage the engine.
The thing is that the fuel pump starts to suck in dirt.
If there is a shortage of fuel, this unit may overheat and break down.
Excessive dirt in this element can lead to serious problems with fuel supply.
Air getting in there can cause the fuel injectors to malfunction.
It is possible that condensation will begin to appear in the almost empty gas tank.
The latter will get into the fuel system. As a result, corrosion processes will begin and other problems will make themselves known.
