    parang kulang ang kinakarga nilang gas? everytime mag pa gas ako using my car with a digital gauges eh laging kulang ng isang bar pag nag pa full tank ako...last time was nun Sunday full tank and yet kulang nanaman ng isang bar sa fuel gauge ko...meron na ba naka experience sa inyo dito?

    pero pag sa ibang station naman ako mag pa full tank, complete ang bars...

    Kulang in terms of volume or kulang in terms of cut-off ng full tank sa pump?

    baka mahaba lang ang nozzle thus the tendency to shut off earlier.

    Ako kasi ang basehan ko di lang basta sa auto stop ng nozzle nila. I always mention “Sagad basta wag lang tatatapon” bale hanggang leeg just before the cap para consistent ang monitoring ko ng FC.

    parng kulang ang kinarga althoug nag automatic na siya, 3X na kasi nangyari s akin doon sa shell SLEx na pag full tank kulang pa rin ng isang bar wherein pag sa ibang stations eh complete bars yun fuel gauge ko

    isn't it standard ang length ng nozzle dapat sa lahat ng stations?

    I used to do that pero mali daw kasi yan ganyan bec gas expands pag mainit so pag sobrang sagad eh natatapon lang daw....and I think nasa manual na dapat automatic lang ang full tank

    ^^^nope full tank kasi ako everytime mag pa karga...so iba-ibang liters depending kung ilan na-consumed ko ang basis ko lang sa automatic shut-off..I thought pareho lahat ng pag auto-shut off ng mga stations...

    Imo di naman basta basta tatapon puwera na lang kung me leak ang cap mo and a few kilometers lang baba na agad ang level anyway ang nozzle sensor (spring like) kasi once natalsikan nag-o-auto stop na so pag full throttle ang nozzle trigger malakas ang balik ng bubbles pag malapit na mapuno

    I guess you can always use a measuring container to check the accuracy of their fuel delivery. Or you can apply the longer process of monitoring your FC using the auto stop of other stations and compare it with your FC using Shell. Assuming that all test parameters are equal, a higher Shell FC will tend to confirm your suspicion.

    I have a different experience at this station mentioned. I tell the gas boy full tank automatic stop. Afterwards, when I start the engine and check my fuel gauge, its a bar over full. Now I know where my extra bar are coming from.
