What to Do If 95 Octane Gasoline Was Accidentally Filled with 92 Octane?
1 Answers
You need to purchase a fuel additive that enhances anti-knock properties. After using it, wait until the 92 octane gasoline is almost used up, then refill with 95 octane gasoline. Below is an introduction to the differences between 92 and 95 octane gasoline: 1. Different proportions of n-heptane and isooctane: 95 octane gasoline contains 95% isooctane and 5% n-heptane; 92 octane gasoline contains 92% isooctane and 8% n-heptane. 2. Different anti-knock properties: The octane number is the target for gasoline's anti-knock performance. The higher the octane number, the stronger the anti-knock performance. The higher the compression ratio, the higher the pressure in the combustion chamber. If gasoline with lower anti-knock properties is used, knocking is more likely to occur. Since 95 octane gasoline has a higher octane content than 92 octane gasoline, its anti-knock performance is better. The anti-knock index of 95 octane gasoline is 90, while that of 92 octane gasoline cannot be less than 87.
