Ford Easy Fuel system helps prevent fuel theft

With gas prices continually rising, the gas becomes increasingly valuable. States States consumes about 400 million gallons of gas each day. As the cost increases in fuel, fuel theft reports continue to increase as well. However Ford owners have less to worry about.

While not impossible, the Ford Easy Fuel system makes it very difficult to siphon gasoline from a vehicle. Brian Aitken, supervisor, fuel systems, said: "Our first goal is to make the refueling process as easy and smooth for the customer as possible. But if it also reduces potential thieves, Ford customers benefit from this way too. "

There are two main that the Ford Easy Fuel system helps deter gas thieves. First, a snap trap door is held closed by latches that can only be released when an standard size fuel nozzle is inserted. This eliminates the need for a screw cap fuel tank. When the proper nozzle is inserted into the filler neck system, the latches will be released and the nozzle pushes the spring trap door open. When the nozzle is removed, the trap door closes automatically bound by the spring. The sole mission of refueling inhibitor helps prevent improper fueling and siphoning. The inhibitor has a fuel nozzle detector that guides the nozzle opening. If a tube is inserted the wrong size, the closures will not release.

The second way the Ford Easy Fuel system helps prevent Gas theft is refueling onboard vapor recovery system. The purpose of this system is to prevent vapors from escaping during loading. Part of system onboard refueling vapor recovery is an inlet valve. The valve is designed to prevent the escape of vapors during the process supply of fuel, but can also prevent siphoning, as it closes automatically after the filling process. This is done by detecting pressure of liquid fuel in its path. Aitken said: "If you do not understand how evil works fueling inhibitor and come prepared, many applicants Fuel thieves do not succeed in diverting fuel vehicles Ford. "

For those who do not own a vehicle with a Fuel capless Easy Fuel, Ford also offers end caps for added protection. Ford's Easy Fuel system makes it easier refueling and helps prevent fuel theft.
