What Type of Gasoline Does a Bentley Use?
1 Answers
Bentley uses 97-octane gasoline. Meaning and Composition of Gasoline: The English term for gasoline is 'gasoline' or 'gas' (American English), also referred to as 'petrol' (British English). It is a volatile, flammable hydrocarbon mixture liquid derived from petroleum through processes like distillation, cracking, or pyrolysis, primarily used as fuel for spark-ignited internal combustion engines. It mainly consists of organic compounds obtained from crude oil distillation and various additives. Function of Gasoline: The octane rating of gasoline measures a specific gasoline mixture's resistance to knocking (which can cause engine knock and reduce the efficiency of reciprocating engines). Based on the octane rating, gasoline is produced in several grades. Other chemicals are often added to gasoline to enhance chemical stability and other properties, control corrosiveness, and maintain the cleanliness of the fuel system.
