Most of us have heard others talking about the importance of keeping your vehicle's fuel tank topped off throughout the winter. Still, not everyone understands why. Here is what you need to know because drivers often do not understand that there are some very basic steps that when taken can ensure that you successfully navigate through the winter months regardless the weather.
As temperatures begin changing from warm to cold, keeping your tank full can help fight that dreaded buildup of condensation. You see, the amount of moisture that can accumulate inside your fuel tank is directly related to the amount of airspace within. The fuller your tank the less air there is to condense into moisture.
Our team at Lithia Chrysler Jeep Dodge of Klamath Falls wants you to be prepared for winter this year, and although keeping your fuel tank topped off might require a little extra effort, it is well worth the effort where long-term costs of servicing your vehicle are concerned.
