[NEohioPAL] SAVE GAS

[Anthony Weishar]

For those who are trying to understand the gasoline vapor concept, here are two visuals. Think of it as gasoline getting very thin and floating out of the tank. When you try to look past someone fueling a vehicle, you notice distortion in your view. Things beyond the fuel nozzle are a bit wavy. That is gasoline mixed with air. It also is the reason for the strong scent. The second visual is a boat fire caused by failure to blow out gas vapor before starting. The electric spark ignites air mixed with gasoline in the engine compartment. 

Another tip: that "check engine" light may be a missing or loose gas cap. 

Finally, if you see Cheech and Chong with a garbage can and piece of hose, hide your vehicle.
