Don’t Top Off
From an article on Planet Green, they talk about the reasons not to top off, including:
- Evaporation from spillage leads to bad ozone days
- You end up paying for gasoline that just automatically gets fed back into the pump (which is bad for the pump as well as your wallet)
- Gas tanks need wiggle room for expansion of the gas - if you overfill, you could mess up your fuel pump.
So break the habit and when the pump clicks, that’s your sign to hang ‘er up.
