fuel pump hirap sa 30 degree angle

[kotiko]

I used to drive around with the fuel level just 1/4 or below it, eventually it killed my fuel pump.

So if you don't want that kind of hassle better fill up on or before you reach 1/4.

its better talaga na meron palagi gas para iwas abala pag tumirik.. besides, nakakahiya pa kasi me pambili ng car pero ala pambili ng gasolina...

But I dont see any justifiable reason na pag less fuel, it will cause damage to the fuel pump. its probably true kung wala na gas ay naka ON pa ignition at continuous na umaandar yung pump or talagang pasira na yung pump... but as i see it, pag nawalan ng gas, sigurado mamamatay makina at yung ignition will be placed in its OFF position and therefore patay na din ang pump, which is the most logical result and thing to do... my cent..

is it also possible na madiskarga ang batterya pag nasagad ang fuel? nasagad ako minsan, diskargado pa batterya ko (my fuel gauge was faulty). sabi ng mekaniko damay daw batterya pag nasaid ang fuel? any truth to this? TIA.

^^no direct connection.... its the resultant effect lang. pag turimirik dahil wala pala gasolina due to faulty gauge, ang tendency is i try paandarin until such time maubos karga ng battery...

pero yung madiskarga yung battery on its own just because nag empty ang fuel, its really a wild imagination... just my another cent
