    3. However, do not refuel when you see the tanker at the gas station. Why? When the underground tank has just been refilled, the sediments below are stirred because of the current created by the hose filling the tank making the chance of the said sediments to reach your car's fuel tank.

    yun pa lang muna
    I follow all of these as well (except for num 3 which I was not aware of). I only gas up at 3 stations.

    I have the impression that gas stations with mostly public vehicles as customers might not be as diligent or conscientious than those that serve mostly private vehicles.

    I think nasa management yan, wala sa brand.

    Kung magandang brand walanghiya naman yung may ari wala din.

    Gaya ni TS shell siya nagpapakarga.

    5. i always refuel in the morning. i read it somewhere that you get more fuel than having it during daytime and evening. as the article explained, cooler temp during the night time makes the fuel denser. pag mainit na daw ang panahon, fuel tends to produce vapor and therefore, the fuel you got when you refuel is mixed with this said vapor. may hangin daw. dont know really if this is really true. wala namang mawawala sa akin kung maniwala ako. i just did it.

    AFAIK, kaya mas magandang mag pakarga sa umaga kasi kung malamig ang fuel, expanded pa ito, meaning mas konte ang makakarga sa fuel tank puno na agad so less ang babayaran mo in terms of liters (correct me if I'm wrong). Kung mainit na ang panahon, nag-eevaporate na ito while filling up, meaning as
    fuel comes out from the nozzle, ung nag-evaporate dumaan na sa meter so babayaran mo yun.
