high octane fuel

The high octane fuel caught fire and the merchantman was abandoned.

High octane fuel was crucial to the high-performance planes that were developed in the late 1930s.

Especially important were synthetic rubber and high octane fuel, which retained their importance after the war.

High Octane fuel is also more expensive.

It is a big money waster for those who give their car a "treat" to higher octane fuel than is needed.

Higher octane fuels allowed boost pressures to be increased without the risks of pre-ignition or knocking.

Some Renix controlled engines will actually get better fuel economy using higher octane fuel.

High compression ratios can cause engine knock unless high octane fuels are used.

A high octane fuel will be more productive than a low octane fuel.

It is also recommended that high octane fuel (92 octane minimum) be used to avoid detonation.

Engine design to run on 87 octane will not have any additional power/ fuel economy from at higher octane fuel.

BTW, it serves no useful purpose to burn higher octane fuel than that recommended by the manufacturer of the engine.

The 1492cc engine still accepted "normal" grade petrol, but the larger two engines, with higher compression ratios, both required higher octane fuels.

The Barra 182 can also take advantage of higher octane fuels, where a small increase of torque can be achieved.

High octane fuel burned in an engine designed for lower octane fuel does not increase engine power.

Due to the lower intake temperatures and denser air charge, more boost pressure and timing advance can be safely added without using higher octane fuel.

Most cars run on 95, but 98 is available for vehicles that need higher octane fuel, or older models containing parts easily damaged by high ethanol content.

This is probably down to the CB70 having the ignition timing mapped more advanced to suit the higher octane fuel used in Japan.

A multifuel engine is constructed so that its compression ratio permits firing the highest octane fuel of the various accepted alternative fuels.

In the 1950s oil refineries started to focus on high octane fuels, and then detergents were added to gasoline to clean the jets and carburetors.

Their decks were cluttered with bombs, torpedoes and hoses charged with high octane fuel, while every plane was a huge petrol bomb waiting to explode.

Cars with turbocharged engines and high compression ratios often specify premium gas because higher octane fuels reduce the incidence of "knock", or fuel pre-detonation.

A large amount of high octane fuel was captured and used by the Australians for use in the Royal Australian Navy motor launch boats.

Burning a special high octane fuel of gasoline blended with Benzole, the carburettor adjusted the richness of the fuel-air mixture according to the aircraft's altitude.

And began to cartwheel towards Crofts, even as the high octane fuel in its rupturing wing tanks detonated in a first flash of rapidly expanding fire.
