Do not pump full tank of petrol...

I just received a forwarded email about this..It is true ? If true..then really what the fuck lor!!

Reads below..

Many of us are not aware that the petrol kiosk pump has a return pipe-line
(in black). When the petrol tank (in the car) reaches full level, there is a
mechanism to trigger off the pump latch and at the same time a return-valve
is opened (at the top of the station) to allow excess petrol to flow back into
the sump. But the return petrol has already pass through the meter, meaning
you are donating the petrol back to SHELL/ PETRONAS/ CALTEX..........

  • then what is that thing overflowing on the side, ruining my paintjob? Anyway, filling up full only weighs your car down = energy loss.

  • Either it's true or not....I guess most of us wouldn't be pumping our tanks full anyway due to the oil price hike and all that.hehe..
    But I think people are getting more and more paranoid each day because of so many things going on in this world today. They muster up all these weird theories and believe informations they get from the media. If you know what i mean?
    for example:

    - People wont eat chicken even though they're already been vaccinated because they think they can still get infected by avian flu.duh!!...

    - Parents keep their little children at home (as in quarantine them) because they dont want them to get infected by HFM (Hand,foot and mouth)Disease.
    First they get rid of chickens and now they're getting rid of little children???!!

    - People all over the world are starting to believe there should be a revolution or reformation or anything like that.
    I mean, have anyone heard people in any country ever satisfied with their government??

    - Terrorist. The President and the U.S government believes that there are terrorists in every Muslim country!

    Just paranoid....

    Agree??
