VTEC and Full tank of petrol

[TRUMAN]

just curious.... a full tank of petrol + giving the car some vtec.. would that have any affect on ur motor or anythings? slower????

[SPEEDCORE]

What exactly are you wanting to know?

[bennjamin]

The car will be slower only because of extra weight from teh extra fuel.
Did you think extra fuel in the tank would mean more fuel in VTEC ?

erm yeah what do you want to know?

you talking about overfilling the tank and its effects on the engine? or the added weight of a full tank of petrol.

First one = ok as the fuel cover has a pressure release (just don't over-overfill)
Second one = i assume a full tank of petrol is around 50l = 50KG. thats nothing. having another passenger or slightly bigger wheels is worse

The car will be slower only because of extra weight from teh extra fuel.

LOL!!!!!!!!!!

umz.. i dont think vtec would do anything negative to ur engine.. its built that way. but ummz.. full tank = more vtecing and distance to cover

i think what hes trying to say is would ur car be slower with a full tank when ur vtecing it... its obvious that if u have more petrol mean more weight so ur car would be a bit slower but i highly doubt you would notice it from half a tank and a full tank.

1L of petrol equates to about .8kg.

do a test, find out and report back to us.

i notice a small difference in performance when i've got a full tank and when it's down to the last 1/4, nothing major though, just that with less weight obviouslt it will go a bit easier, not faster. Only way to find out is down a quater mile

^^^ i asked a few people this before... especially with overfilling a bit to round up $ after the pump click... i'm pretty sure it raises fuel pressure a tad...
