It can really mess up the EVAP system in your car. Same reason your engine light will come on if your gas cap doesn't have a good seal. It doesn't happen all the time, but why chance it along with the possibilities of a fire.

Turning off engine while refueling by TheOceanIs this based on bs science?


While I am all about science, there are just some things that are based on common sense instead of analysis of data...I would say that not running an internal combustion engine in a hazardous atmosphere would fall into that category...
