Recently, an urban myth has been circulating online, suggesting not to refuel after an earthquake due to the violent shaking of oil tanks stirring up sediment. However, CPC responded that post-earthquake inspections focus on machinery functioning and are unrelated to oil quality. In reality, earthquakes have minimal impact on oil quality as there are filtration processes from the inlet to the fuel dispensers. Taiwan FactCheck Center has debunked myths related to gas stations, clarifying that underground oil tanks have insulation, refueling in liters or amounts may slightly vary due to rounding, and refueling to a whole number still means adding oil, not air.
