Compression Ratio 10.5:1 - Should I Use 92 or 95 Octane?
1 Answers
Compression ratio 10.5:1 requires 95 octane fuel. 95 octane gasoline is more suitable for vehicles with high compression ratios. Below are specific details about fuel standards: 1. 90 octane gasoline is suitable for gasoline vehicles with engine compression ratios below 8.5; 92 octane gasoline is suitable for gasoline vehicles with engine compression ratios between 8.6~9.9. 2. 95 octane gasoline is suitable for gasoline vehicles with engine compression ratios between 10.0~11.5; 98 octane gasoline is suitable for gasoline vehicles with engine compression ratios above 11.6. Additional information: Compression ratio refers to the degree of compression of the engine's air-fuel mixture, expressed as the ratio of the total cylinder volume before compression to the cylinder volume after compression (i.e., combustion chamber volume). Higher octane fuel has better anti-knock properties and is less prone to detonation, but burns relatively slower. Lower octane fuel burns faster but lacks sufficient anti-knock capability, making it more likely to cause detonation.
