THE IMPORTANCE OF FUEL CAPS

A fuel cap is a device used to seal a car’s fuel inlet (keeps the fuel inside the tank) and performs three very important functions:

Improving Safety

Fuel is highly volatile and highly flammable and if your tank was not sealed by a tight cap, this flammable vapor would constantly leak from the tank.

Increasing Fuel Economy

Fuel caps ensure the fuel you pay for at the pump actually reaches your engine and does not escape into the atmosphere (if it is properly sealed). If the cap is not sealed properly, the fuel system can also be compromised by being contaminated with dirt and grime and the fuel will evaporate, leading to poor fuel economy.

Reducing Harmful Emissions

Fuel usually burns cleanly within a vehicle’s engine. If fuel vapor was to escape without being burned, it would damage the atmosphere like many other volatile hydrocarbons. The fuel cap prevents the leakage of these vapors and reduces harmful emissions.

SYMPTOM OF A FAULTY FUEL CAP

As a general rule, the symptoms of a failing fuel cap include:

  • Trouble removing or tightening the fuel cap (it will not tighten completely)
  • Poor engine performance
  • The smell of fuel from the vehicle
  • Check Engine Light comes on
  • Water in the fuel tank

Fuel caps, like any other car part, can be susceptible to wear and tear and other damage. But luckily fuel caps are easy and inexpensive to replace. You can purchase a replacement fuel cap directly from one of our Sparesboyz branches, visit our website at www.sparesboyz.com or simply give us a call and we will deliver the fuel cap directly to you.
