WHAT DOES RESERVE TANK MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Fuel reserve

In motorcycles and cars, fuel reserve is the extra fuel reserved by the manufacturer in the fuel tank of a car or motorcycle before the main fuel capacity runs out. In motorcycles, when the main fuel runs out, the rider has to manually turn the reserve knob, usually located in the left part of the engine, to the reserve position. This allows the rider to use the remaining fuel. The purpose of the fuel reserve is to serve as a warning to the rider that fuel is low, as many motorcycles do not have fuel gauges and determining the fuel remaining is difficult. When the main fuel is exhausted, the motor will stop running, prompting the rider to change the position knob to continue riding with a known small quantity of fuel. Often when a rider notices the motor start to sputter, he can access the reserve before the engine shuts down. In most cases, the main tank and the reserve tank are actually the same tank, but there are two outlets through which the fuel may leave. One outlet is located a short distance above the other.

Definition of reserve tank in the English dictionary
