Will they teach me how to fill my car with gas in Driving school?

Question

because I have no clue, and if left alone I might cause an explosion XD

Answer 1

No, you'll need to contact human resources at your local fire department and bring a box of kleenex and a very fast convertible.

Answer 2

you can't be serious.

Answer 3

its not difficult, just make sure to turn off your car and put your gas cap back on when youre done

you may have to ask, but i'm sure someone will explain it to you

Answer 4

wow

Answer 5

I can't believe you need somebody to teach to do that.

If you have trouble with that, maybe you shouldn't be driving.

Answer 6

Read the driving manual.  It will  tell you what you need to know.  Or, go ask your dad or mom.

Answer 7

Step1

Find out which side of the car the gas tank fill spout is on.

Step2

Pull up to the appropriate gas pump, making sure the fill spout is facing the pump.

Step3

Turn off the car.

Step4

Open the gas tank door. On newer cars, this is done with a button from the inside of the car, but on older cars the tank can be opened by hand, often with a key.

Step5

Unscrew the cap of the gas tank.

Step6

Put the gas cap where you won't forget it.

Step7

If you're paying with a credit card, run the card through the machine and follow any printed instructions. Otherwise, see the attendant. Many gas stations in cities require you to pay before you pump.

Step8

Select the type of gas you'd like (regular, premium, super). Never put diesel fuel in a nondiesel engine.

Step9

Lift the handle of the gas hose off its stand and insert the nozzle into the tank of your car. Make sure it is securely inserted by pushing it in firmly.

Step10

Push the switch or press the button on the pump to allow the gas to flow. This switch is different at different stations; follow the instructions at the pump.

Step11

Pull up on the trigger located in the handle of the gas hose. This will release the gas into the tank of your car.

Step12

Some triggers lock into place, freeing you to wash windows and check oil while the machine pumps gas. Check for this feature.

Step13

Note that when the tank is full, the fuel will stop pumping. Remove the gas hose. Don't try to "top off" the gas tank because this will lead to spillage.

Step14

Firmly s***w the gas tank cap back into place and shut the gas tank door.

Answer 8

I never even thought about it. I just stuck the nozzle in, filled up some and told the person at the counter the number of the pump.

Answer 9

i had driving school today

and they taught me!

Answer 10

your the definition of an idiot

if you are old enough to drive

you DEFINITELY should NOT be driving a car

Answer 11

Very Good Point!  Also check the oil and tires, and they need to teach all that with safety tips.

Does any one remember when they actually had "full service"

It's incredible that our economically challenged society has put some people in a position to put our lives in danger. We now take it for granted. Think about it, we pay over $4. a gallon for gas AND we have to take the risk of pumping gas ourselves.

It would be a good idea if these gas marts personnel has an extra staff member to include these services as needed. They don't have to be a mechanic, just some safety training about that. It would actually create a job. You know they can afford to do it!

I would be glad to extent the attendant a non-taxable tip for his/her efforts.

Answer 13

It's very easy to fill gas.  I lived in NJ for many years, and once I was about to move to Florida, I was nervous about pumping my own gas.  But it's very easy.  If you paying in cash, you pull up to one of the pumps, go inside, and give them the money and tell them how much you want and tell them the pump number.  Go back to your car, open the gas cap, press the button of which gas you want (regular, premium, etc), and put the nozzle in the gas hole, and pull the trigger.  It will automatically stop to the price you've paid for.  Put the nozzle back on the pump, close the gas cap, and you're done.

If you pay with a debit/credit card, it'll give you step by step directions.  Just swipe the card, put your PIN number or zip code, take your card back, press start or pick which kind of gas you want, pump away and release the trigger once you've reached the amount you want to pay for.  Close the cap, put the gun away, and you're done.  It's real easy, lol.

I also forgot to tell you to turn off the engine before you pump, and don't use your cell phone and def don't smoke anywhere near the pump.

Answer 14

If you had been watching other folks fill their cars as a wayward youth , you wouldn't need to ask such a question.

Answer 19

Answer 20

Answer 21

I don't think so.

Answer 22

They should teach you. I learned on my own the 1st time I ever went to the self service (once the gas got to $3.50 I started using self service to save 10 cents per gallon) since I was sick the day we went to fill up gas with my car group.

Answer 23

Answer 24

If you cant figure it out on your own you shouldn't be driving

Answer 25

Typically no, but you can ask them to show you how to do it.
