Gasoline fumes are flammable. A running car generates heat and electricity and is more likely to be an ignition source.
Gasoline does not ignite. The fumes from gasoline are what ignites. They will ignite at any temperature. According to the best sources I could find there are three answers (all apply to gas fumes as stated above). 1.) Flash point -43 F 2.) Ignition Temp -40 both of the above require an external source of ignition. Then ..... 3.) Auto Ignition Temp 246--280 °C (475--536 °F) Is the answer for what temp it will ignite on it's own without external 'spark'. I leaned heavily on Wikipedia for source material
The fumes are flammable just like gasoline fumes.
Although cigarettes that are lit can not ignite the gas fumes, those signs are there to prevent people from lighting the cigarette, because the flame used to light it could also ignite the gas fumes.
its not a drug but its addictive its gasoline
Because of the fumes. Technically if you threw a match at a gallon of gasoline and could get it past the fumes the match would go out when it hit the liquid. But the match will pass through the fumes and ignite and then the gasoline will ignite and burn or explode. So an empty barrel is all fumes and therefore an explosive environment exists in the drum.
Well I suppose that if the automobile engineer were to breath in gasoline fumes, that would be an example.
