With best wishes A.G.CHANDRASEKHAR 23306222 9901853662    PETROL TIPS - info!!  (MUST  READ)       With  Petrol expected to reach £2 per litre by end of  2011 these tips that I received from a friend  might come in  handy.       TIPS  ON PUMPING PETROL       I  don't know what you guys are paying for  petrol.... I am paying  up to £1.35 to £1.50 per litre. My line of work  is in petroleum for about       31 years now, so here  are some tricks to get more of your money's  worth for every Litre:       Here  at the Shell Pipeline where I work ,  we deliver about 4 million litres in a 24-hour  period .. One day is diesel the  next day is jet       fuel, and petrol, regular and  premium grades. We have 34-storage tanks here  with a total capacity of 16,800,000  Litres.       Only  buy or fill up your car or truck in the early  morning when the ground temperature is still  cold.Remember  that all service stations       have their storage  tanks buried below ground. The colder the ground  the more dense the petrol, when it gets warmer  petrol expands, so       buying in the afternoon or in  the evening....your litre is not exactly a  litre. In the petroleum business, the specific  gravity and the       temperature of the petrol,  diesel and jet fuel, ethanol and other petroleum  products plays an important  role.       A  1-degree rise in temperature is a big deal for  this business. But the service stations do not  have temperature compensation at the       pumps.       When  you're filling up do not squeeze the trigger of  the nozzle to a fast mode  If you look you will see that the trigger has  three (3)       stages: low, middle, and high. You  should be pumping on low mode, thereby  minimizing the vapours that are created while  you are pumping.       All hoses at the pump have a  vapour return. If you are pumping on the fast  rate, some of the liquid that goes to your tank  becomes vapour.       Those vapours are being sucked  up and back into the underground storage tank so  you're getting less worth for your  money.       One  of the most important tips is to fill up when  your Petrol tank is HALF FULL. The reason  for this is the more Petrol you have in your       tank the less air occupying its empty space.  petrol evaporates faster than you can imagine.  petrol storage tanks have an internal floating       roof. This roof serves as zero clearance between  the Petrol and the atmosphere, so it minimizes  the evaporation. Unlike service stations,       here  where I work, every truck that we load is  temperature compensated so that every litre is  actually the exact amount.       Another  reminder, if there is a petrol truck pumping  into the storage tanks when you stop to buy  Petrol, DO NOT fill up; most likely  the       petrol is being stirred up as the Petrol is  being delivered, and you might pick up some of  the dirt that normally settles on the  bottom.       To  have an impact, we need to reach literally  millions of Petrol  buyers. It's really simple to  do.       I'm  sending this note to about thirty people. If each  of you send it to at least ten more (30 x 10 =  300)...and those 300 send it to at       least ten more  (300 x 10 = 3,000) and so on, by the time the  message reaches the sixth generation of people, we  will have reached overTHREE       MILLION consumers  !!!!!!! If those three million get excited and  pass this on to ten friends each, then 30 million  people will have been       contacted!       If  It goes one level further, you guessed it..... THREE  HUNDRED MILLION PEOPLE!!!       Again,  all you have to do is send this to 10 people. How  long would it take?
