Best Answer

I usually define a HIGH GRADE FUEL the fuel that presents a very good quality in comparison to other similar fuels. It is not an absolute concept but a relative one. For example, talking about fuel gases in general, liquefied petroleum gas and natural gas can be considered high grade fuels, because other fuel gases as coke oven gas, blast furnace gas, landfill gas and producer gas present lower qualities due to particulate matter, tar, moisture and sulphur compounds. Another example, talking about diesel, the diesel 50 (50 ppm of sulphur) is a high grade fuel in comparison with other diesel fuels which present higher sulphur contents.

What is the danger of high compression in a spark ignition engine?

If the pressure is too high for the grade of fuel, you will get 'pinking' or 'pinging'. This is the term for pre-ignition. The fuel will explode instead of burning rapidly, and makes a metallic rattling or 'pinking' sound. This can damage the valves and piston crown if left to continue. High compression engines need a better grade of fuel, a higher Octane number.

What do you do if you put the wrong fuel in your car and what happens to the car high grade fuel in a mid grade fuel car?

== == Automobiles with gas or petrol engines require either regular grade gasoline or super grade. The vehicle's manual will tell you which grade of gas is required. If you fill a vehicle requiring regular fuel with the more expensive super, you are wasting money, as there is no appreciable gain in mileage, engine longevity, etc. However if you put regular fuel into a vehicle requiring super (due to high compression ratio of many sports cars, high-end sedans, etc.) you can cause the engine to knock and cause carbon deposits to build up in the engine. Mid grade can sometimes be used in a mix with super to lower fuel costs, but this is not recommended by automobile manufacturers. If you want to know about using the wrong kind of fuel - in the case of a gas or petrol engine putting diesel in its fuel tank, or putting gas or petrol in a vehicle that has a diesel engine - see the answer to the Related Questionshown below.
