Nine Easy Steps for Putting Gas in Your Car
 

Author: Joe Kahler

After getting your car you now have the responsibility to keep gas in it...that is if you can afford it these days! Here is a quick review on filling up at the gas station.

  • Make sure you know which side your gas cap is on.

  • Pull your car up so your gas cap is lined up next to the gas hose. Always try to pull forward to farthest pump available. This will help you avoid people shouting nasty words and making hand gestures at you who are also pulling in to get gas.

  • Most gas stations have the debit card access at the pump or at a separate location. A few have a separate location but they both work the same way.

  • Look for a button that says, "Pay by Debit", "Pay by Credit" (It may ask if you will "Pay inside or Pay outside." You will press the button that says pay outside debit.)

  • Put your debit card in and out of the slot quickly. (Look at picture on pump to see what direction to put the card in.)

  • Some pumps will then require you to put in your debit card PIN number.

  • After your card is accepted, you will push the button or take the gas handle for unleaded. (Note: The unleaded gas with the lowest octane number, which is usually 87 octane, will be the cheapest to buy.)

  • Put the nozzle in the tank and squeeze the handle to pump the gas. When it clicks off it means the tank is full. Pull out the nozzle and put it back in the holder.

  • Wait for the receipt, put the cap back on and close cover.

    All gas stations are not alike, but this will give you an idea of how the majority of the gas pumps work. When you come to a gas station that does not resemble the type above....go ahead and ask the gas / store attendant for help... it's OK!
