What is a "gas tank"?
A gas tank is a container in a vehicle used to store fuel, such as gasoline or diesel, that powers the engine. It is usually located beneath the vehicle, either at the rear or sometimes under the front. The gas tank holds the fuel until it is needed by the engine to run the vehicle. It is designed to safely store fuel and prevent leaks, with a cap that seals the opening to avoid spillage and keep the fuel secure. The size of the gas tank determines how far a vehicle can travel before needing to refuel.
Example
The gas tank had a capacity of 15 gallons.
He filled the gas tank before the long trip.
The gas tank was located under the rear seat.
