35. How to Pump Gas for More Fuel
When you pump gas into your car, you might think pushing the pump handle all the way down is the best way. But, surprise! There’s a smarter way to do it.
If you squeeze the handle too hard, it can make air bubbles in your gas tank. This tricks the pump into thinking your tank is full when there’s still space for more gas.
To get the most out of your fill-up, try this: only squeeze the pump halfway. Yes, it’ll take a bit longer for the gas to flow, but you’ll end up with more fuel in your tank.
