Long standstill of the car saves the life of the engine and protects the thickness of the brake pads. However, they often cause technical problems. On the impact of parking on a joke on the fuel system of a car – in the material of the AvtoVzglyad portal.
One of the problems faced by the owner of a car that has stood still for a long time without moving, manifests itself in all its glory at a gas station. It is reflected in the fact that it becomes almost impossible to fill the car. Even when the fuel tank is almost empty, the gun stuck in his neck stubbornly breaks off again and again and refuses to pour gasoline – as if there is already “under the neck”. This happens when the fuel pump sensor detects that the “barrel” is submerged in fuel.
In other words, the tank is empty and gasoline (or diesel) does not go in, but remains in the neck. You should not invent complex technical reasons for the occurrence of this problem if the car has been standing still for a long time. In such a case, either a shut-off valve in the neck of the tank, or a gasoline vapor recovery system, or rather its adsorber, may become an obstacle to fuel. The latter is a small metal cylinder containing coal pellets. The walls corrode slowly and can rust completely through at a time when the car owner is not operating his car.
At the same time, coal particles clog the nozzle of the gasoline vapor removal system. Due to this, the latter begin to accumulate in the tank during refueling, preventing the flow of fuel. The result of this is the firing of the filling pistol. As for the shut-off valve in the neck of the gas tank, it is a sleeve in which a rubber or plastic diaphragm is built. This device not only acts as a kind of barrier to petrol vapors on the way to freedom, but mainly serves to protect cars against unauthorized draining of fuel by intruders.
When the machine is not used for a long time, the membrane material loses its elasticity and begins to hinder the filling of fuel into the tank. In addition, a car parked for a long time is a favorite target of citizens who earn their living by stealing fuel from the gas tanks of parked vehicles. Sometimes when you try to “suck” fuel from the victim’s car, the shut-off valve breaks or part of the tube comes off, causing the suction to take place. In both cases, the capacity of the tank neck drops sharply. Which provokes the “shooting” of the fuel pistol at the gas station.
