Petrol pumps nationwide pumping accurately – KPDN

Petrol pumps nationwide pumping accurately – KPDN

Following consumer complaints, the domestic trade and cost of living ministry (KPDN) has checked 2,282 RON 95 pumps at 584 petrol stations – including major brands, mini stations and unbranded mini stations – across all states and districts in Malaysia from November 3-9 for dispensing accuracy, and no non-compliance was found, The Star reports.

“The purpose of this inspection was to ensure that all petrol dispensers have undergone verification and that the certification remains valid. We also aim to detect any element of manipulation or technical non-compliance by petrol station operators,” said a KPDN statement today.

“Throughout this operation, no offences involving RON 95 fuel quantity below the maximum permissible error were identified. The ministry is committed to ensuring the accuracy of RON 95 petrol measurements and will continue periodic inspections. Firm action will be taken if any manipulation or non-compliance is detected,” the statement added.

Under Section 16 of the Weights and Measures Act 1972, offenders may face fines of up to RM40,000, imprisonment of up to three years, or both, with any tampered equipment also subject to forfeiture. KPDN on November 1 refuted claims that RON 95 petrol had deteriorated in quality and quantity post-Budi95.

All petrol pumps undergo yearly volume verification and must display a sticker showing the expiry date of said verification. How is it done? KPDN pumps 10 litres (or what should be 10 litres) of fuel into a 10-litre measuring device and the gauge will show how much over or under it is. The tolerated allowance is between -25 and +50 ml for 10 litres.

        because BN wanted to [protect saga , they raised the prices of all other foreign car brands. also RON95 was more expensive back then during BN time (accounting for inflation). say no to Barang Naik

        saga today is even cheaper than during BN time saga (account for inflation).
        budi95 today is cheaper than during BN era ron95.
        imported EV car certainly cheaper because tax free , compared to last time when BN heavily taxed foreign car because wanted to protect proton from foreign competitors.

    The issue is simple, when u have ppl who don’t know how to calculate full tank to full tank fuel consumption and look at the bars and say turun 2 bar banyak tu pkai minyak then it’ll always have ppl who can’t read fuel meters and imagination runs wild at the pump

      The fuel gauge is not meant for the accurate lab calibrated measurement of fuel volume inside the tank, as it is supposed to help the driver estimate how much further to go before the next refueling stop.
