    AFAIK on EFI engines when you open the gas tank cap some pressure is released, thats reason enough to switch off the engine, I dont want something happening to my fuel pump or whatnot because I didnt turn off my engine. Most if not all car manuals indicate to turn off the engine while filling up. Safety First.

    Engine lang papatayin ko.

    The cellphone law is pure BS.

    I read somewhere na mas delikado pa nga na pag bumaba ka sa car while filling up dahil ang lakas ng static electricity nun.

    in reality tes it is defenitely a hassle especially sa mga tamad parang ako hehe, sarap na sarp na ko sa lamig ng aircon tapos papatayin ko pa hehe. pero cyempre SAFETY FIRST! oo it is a hassle pero if it can save your life whats 10 mins. ya i know add those ten minuites in a year an minus it with your life thats already 5% of your life thats crap! whats 5% when you take half of what remains with your crappy life hehe.
    its true that even 20 mobilephones cannot make gasoline to blow up pero u cant tell rin diba, pero if you look at the chances of that happening your car blowing up bec of your phone thats like 1 in a trillion pero you'll still never know. kung ayaw mo patayin ung phone mo well bahala ka.
    basta TURN OFF YOUR ENGINE one spark the KABOOOM!!!!!!! do you want your whole family going in flames? there are also times when i dont turn off the engine, but its best that you do. nasa huli na ang pagsisisi.

    Cell phones were known to explode in HK if the batteries were substandard.

    Kaya go orig.

    Ever since I learned to drive, pinapatay ko agad ang makina pagdating sa gas station. Then buksan yung fuel lid tapos sabihin sa attendant kung anong fuel tsaka magkano. Hardly a hassle for me.

    Cellphone, hindi ko pinapatay since I need the calculator function so I can immediately compute my previous mileage. But I make sure na wala akong incoming calls/messages before and during filling up.

    I don't believe celfones can cause fire or combustion...it's a misconception really.
    there has been no incident of a fire at a gasoline station started by a celfone. Its all because of a chain-email sent around years ago that started that misconception.
