“Won’t the engine knock?” – Man stuns many as he shows off his unusual way of saving fuel in this economy

A young Nigerian man has captivated many online with his unconventional method to economizing fuel amid economic challenges in the country.

The video shared online shows a man wearing only a towel trying to use a generator, probably to deal with the intense heat.

Rather than employing conventional methods, the man opts for a unique tactic by tilting the generator at an angle, with the fuel pipe pointed downward.

The intention seems to be to let fuel flow freely through the pipe without filling up the entire fuel tank, hence presumably saving on fuel consumption.

Some have raised concerns that this method may potentially damage the generator’s engine or pose safety hazards.
