I&#8217;ve heard you get more gas if you are not in a hurry.<br \/>\nA1) Yes. The gas pumps are not tuned for slow delivery levels and will &#8220;leak&#8221; a little extra gas when run at the minimum delivery rate.<\/p>\n<p>Q2) Does gas actually compress at night when it&#8217;s cold?<br \/>\nA2) Yes. See the Seraphin picture for the actual math formula to compute the change in volume based on temperature. For best results &#8211; pump your gas at night or early morning when the ground temp is lowest.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I saw this guy testing the meters on the gas pumps today and asked him a few questions.
