According to your own information let’s say a given gasoline tank contains 15 gallons, that’s 57204 grams of fuel. 2 grams amounts to a rounding error. 1% as was being discussed in the thread would be 572 grams, or as posited in you first post to me of 40% would be 22881 grams. Of course a vehicles’ Evaporative Emissions System is not a perfect containment vessel on a molecular level, buts it’s hardly the losing proposition you contend, I know, I know, maths are hard.

“2 grams amounts to a rounding error.”

That’s just admitting you don’t know what a “rounding error” is. Rounding errors don’t compute to real world measurable losses over time.

“1% as was being discussed in the thread would be 572 grams”

1% was in context of battery drainage not fuel leakage.

“Of course a vehicles’ Evaporative Emissions System is not a perfect containment vessel...”

Which is all I ever asserted. Thanks for conceding that.
