Abstract
In the case of stationary fuel tanks subjected to high ambient temperatures for prolonged periods, vaporization may account for a significant loss of the more volatile fractions. Although the quantitative loss might not be serious, fuel quality may be affected to the extent of difficult starting under subsequent low temperature conditions.
