How much fuel is carried on an airplane?
Filed Under Aircraft | 7 Comments
asked:
How much fuel is carried on an airplane? I saw a movie once where an airplane landed on a building and it did not burn up or the building fall down but with 911 airplanes the building went down. Is there enough fuel in an airplane for it to be use like a bomb? I really do not buy in to conspiratory theories. But I have been worring if it was more to it then this. So how much fuel is carried on a airplane? And could this be real?

NiceGuy asked:
i flushed the system with plenty of water, will that be sufficient?
My dad filled the gallon of atifreeze with diesel and never removed the label. I poured a quart without knowing and drove it for 2,000 miles then after I changed my thermostat today. I started pouring some when my dad told me it was actually diesel. I drained and flushed the radiator with a lot of water and filled it with new antifreeze. Will that be sufficient or do I still have to worry ?

Does a fuel pump on a car send fuel to the engine all the time or just when you first start the car?

Can I get better fuel economy on a diesel by installing a less restrictive air intake and larger exhaust?

I have an 06 F250 with a 6.0 L diesel and don’t get much fuel economy. I don’t want to put a chip in it because I don’t think it wil;l help the fuel economy and may void the warranty.
