It really depends on what fuel you're talking about, however, the burning of a fuel such as gasoline or an alcohol results when a hydrocarbon molecule from the fuel and oxygen (typically from the air) react in a special type of chemical reaction called a "combustion reaction". Hydrocarbons can come in many different forms, but when they undergo a combustion reaction, the result is always carbon dioxide and water.

Here's the form of the reaction
C(x)H(x) + O2 --> CO2 + H2O

weird if you ask me...
