1. Which engine type has maximum fuel efficiency? The engine with the maximum fuel efficiency is the diesel engine. The diesel engine is one of the most efficient engines, with an average fuel consumption of 5.1 liters per 100 kilometers. The diesel engine has a...
The 8 Things You Need to Know About Fuel Factor X
1. What is the correct Fuel Treatment Ratio of FFX? The treatment ratio is the ratio of FFX to fuel. The higher the treatment ratio, the more fuel you need to use. The treatment ratio for FFX is between 1:5,000 and 1:10,000. This means that for every 5,000 or...
What Factors Effect Fuel Efficiency and Engine Longevity?
How is fuel efficiency measured? Fuel efficiency is the measure of how much fuel is used to produce a certain amount of work. There are many different ways to measure fuel efficiency. The most common way is miles per gallon (MPG). This measurement tells you how...
The History of Diesel Engines and How They are Changing the World
Introduction: What is a Diesel Engine? Diesel engines are internal combustion engines that run on diesel fuel and use heat to generate energy. The diesel engine was invented by a German engineer, Rudolf Diesel, in the early 20th century. He wanted to create an...
How to Start Gold Mining and it’s Effects on the Economy
What is Gold Mining? Gold mining is the process of extracting gold from the earth. Gold miners use equipment to extract gold from rocks and soil. The two most common methods of extracting gold are panning and hydraulic mining. Panning is done by using a pan, which...
How a Combustion Engine Works and What are the Benefits?
Introduction: What is a Combustion Engine and How Does it Work? The combustion engine is a type of engine that burns fuel to create heat, and the resulting hot gases are used to produce mechanical motion. The most common form of combustion engine is the internal...
Who is the ASTM and what do they have to do with fuel treatment products?
ASTM is an international standards organization that develops and publishes voluntary consensus standards for a wide range of materials, products, systems, and services. ASTM has developed a standard for fuel treatment products. This standard is used to test the...
What is Antiknock and how does it effect my engine?
Antiknock is a chemical additive that is added to gasoline to reduce knocking or pinging in the engine. It does this by reducing the tendency of the fuel-air mixture in an engine's cylinders to ignite prematurely, which can cause damage and lead to power loss. The...
What is a fuel treatments aniline point?
Aniline point is a measure of the solvency of an aromatic hydrocarbon in a solvent. It is measured by adding aniline to the solvent and measuring the temperature at which it starts to dissolve. The aniline point is important for fuel treatment because it determines...
What does the fuel treatment acidity or acid number measure?
The fuel treatment acidity or acid number is a measure of the concentration of hydrogen ions in fuel. It is measured by titration with an indicator solution, usually phenolphthalein. The higher the value, the more acidic the fuel is. Examples: Some fuel treatment...
