Best Answer

They include: carbon dioxide, water vapour, sulfur dioxide and carbon monoxide.

The carbon oxides and water vapour are the primary products. If combustion is complete the CO is converted to CO2, which is less poisonous. Sulphur Dioxide is produced only if the fuel contains sulphur or sulphur compounds in the first place, but this does include coal and oil. Petroleum -based fuels may also produce nitrous oxide under certain circumstances, including in vehicle engines.
