Just for us, they should have included a carb/non-computer controlled vehicle as well:
I think we knew that already.
As car junkies, most of know this, proper octane for the need of the engine. As far as how much the engine exhales pollutant partials in parts per million, it would be hard to find anybody here who would know since such testing equipment is far and few between us all.I think we knew that already.
??????complaints.
Good note. Not covered by the reporter. Which isn’t a surprise. The net work itself probably has a time limit in investigative reporting and a limit on what is going to be presented.Granted, the testing may be flawed, I think they found data they already had decided to prove a point with.
Let's see some quarter mile ET's regular vs premium.
At 5:40 the dyno is showing 6 Hp "just to turn the wheels" ( regular or premium) isn't that the HP to turn the dyno IE the load on the dyno is 6HP just freewheeling or that is the minimum load the dyno can load up.
Is it just me or did the tech say that the engine would be more "Proficient" on premium.
An engine that has a knock sensor should be more efficient with a higher octane assuming the lower octane would create a ping situation.
Thoughts?
Lol!
To call what we are supposed to buy “fuel” is silly. It’s really now take a gallon of gasoline and how many times can we cut it down with fillers to make a buck and still make it work?
The tv commercials act as if they have scientist making very in-depth chemical research to get you the best and cleanest fuel possible. I secretetly envision a room full of drug dealers now employed by the major fuel companies cutting fuel like they did cocaine in the early 80’s.
I crack my self up- sorry for the parity.
