Burning gasoline releases carbon dioxide emissions into the atmosphere adding to global warming.

Given current technology, gasoline is still necessary for most vehicles to operate properly. Ethanol alone won't run most vehicles, and there is some doubt that the available supply is adequate for it completely replacing gasoline.

The answer is to use other less-polluting forms of transport where possible, and encourage the early development of renewable energy, so that we can run cleaner electric and hydrogen vehicles.

Is there any reason to use premium gasoline?

Premium gasoline is recommended for certain high-performance vehicles that require higher octane levels to prevent engine knocking and ensure optimal performance. Additionally, some luxury cars may benefit from using premium fuel to maintain efficiency and power. However, for most standard vehicles, using regular gasoline is sufficient and can save money without sacrificing performance. Always consult your vehicle's owner manual for specific fuel recommendations.


How might the mixing of gasoline with ethanol to improve fossil fuel conservation impact the fire safety of motor vehicles?

It doesn't really have an effect. Ethanol burns hotter and faster than gasoline, but it isn't any more volatile. The same safety precautions that are implemented for gasoline, at filling stations and in fuel delivery systems, will also prevent the risk of ethanol fires.

Understanding Electric Plug-in Vehicles?

Electric plug-in vehicles are similar to conventional hybrid cars. Both cars use a gasoline engine and an electric engine. Plug-in vehicles have larger batteries and can be recharged using common household electricity. They are driven in an all electric mode during local travel as much as 40 miles without any gas. Once the battery is depleted, the small gasoline engine is used to recharge the batteries as the car moves until plugged up again.


I have a 1971 delivery-van style transporter. I haven't used it in about 8 years and now I'm unsure of what type of fuel to put in it. Back then we still had leaded fuel. What gasoline should I use?

Where is gasohol used?

Gasohol was just gasoline with a portion of alcohol in it. Some stations carried it. It did not cause any problems to the vehicles I drove and really didn't change the power output of the vehicle. Because the percentage of alcohol mixed in is so low. Most likely to be found at economy branded gas stations(mainly because they did not have any other additive to promote>Techroline.....tell me what is that for example?<. Gasohol is still being sold but it does not prove to be the economical substitute for gasoline as initially thought. It's cost of production is at par with gasoline and never could supply the demand if it went "full out" pure alcohol. So, for now it remains as an additive.
