The Reason Why High Octane Fuel Gives You Better Mileage !!!

Wednesday, November 22, 2006

Wondered why the high octane fuel gives you a lot better mileage than the normal fuel . I guess this must be a insult on the intelligence of a lot many people reading this , cos it’s pure common sense and reasoning that would give you this answer … well but then again lemme just put it out, just incase one of you wanna let that brain of your’s laze around a bit :)

Hmmm … How do I start??? Ok lemme say that you are a person who loves driving, and somebody who really is not a speed freak. You love cruising at lets say 50 Kmph and don’t really wanna get your engine to roar a lot.

So now in order to maintain the speed , your gonna increase the throttle till you reach the speed your comfortable with and then the throttle is steady. Let’s say that you are using a bike & your throttle can turn from a range of 0 degrees to a max of 180 Degree corresponding to the min to max value, & the max value of 180 Degrees makes you rip at 120 Kmph & 0 Degrees stalls you to 0 Kmph.

Now to remain at 50 Kmph , you will have to turn your throttle to 80 Degrees. So this regulates the fuel inflow into the engine & your speed is maintained. Lets assume that this is the case for a Normal Fuel.

Now when you use high octane fuel, the same amount of fuel used in contrast to the normal fuel, gives you a lot more energy !!! [Duh !!! Common Sense :-) ] So now for you remain at 50 Kmph, you may need to move the throttle to a much lesser angle, lets say just 50 Degrees.

The lesser is the angel of rotation, the lesser is the fuel consumed!!! So it all boils down to one simple thing , better Mileage !!! ( That’s what makes my pocket happy )

But if you are a speed freak … you would still hold the throttle at 80 Degree & race the wind :) Geediup horsie !!!!!
