    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Top_Tier_Detergent_Gasoline

    Cars with gasoline direct injection (GDI) have been especially prone to carbon buildup, and car makers recommend fuels with higher detergent levels to combat the problem. [18] At first GDI was mainly available in high-end autos, but it is now being used in mid-range cars and economy cars, such as the Hyundai Sonata, Ford Focus and Hyundai Accent.

    The 1996 Japanese-market Mitsubishi Galant was the first mass-produced car to use a GDI engine, when a GDI version of the Mitsubishi 4G93 inline-four engine was introduced. [52] [53] It was subsequently brought to Europe in 1997 in the Carisma. [54] It also developed the first six-cylinder GDI engine, the Mitsubishi 6G74 V6 engine, in 1997. [55]

    The first four-stroke direct-injection petrol engine for a passenger car was released the following year, in the Mercedes-Benz 300SL sports car. [38] However the engine suffered lubrication problems due to petrol diluting the engine oil, [39] [40] and subsequent Mercedes-Benz engines switched to a manifold injection design. Likewise, most ...

    The fuel efficiency and working principle of a PPC engine resemble those of Diesel engine, but the PPC engine can be run with a variety of fuels. Also, the partially premixed charge burns clean. [6] Challenges with using gasoline in a PPC engine arise due to the low lubricity of gasoline and the low cetane value of gasoline.

    This simplifies engine (piston crown, head, valves, injector, prechamber, etc.) design and allows the use of less tightly toleranced designs which are simpler to manufacture and more reliable. Direct injection , by contrast, uses slow-moving air and fast-moving fuel; both the design and manufacture of the injectors is more difficult.

    The use of the term paraffin in place of the standard chemical nomenclature alkane is particular to the oil industry (which relies extensively on jargon). The composition of a gasoline depends upon: the oil refinery that makes the gasoline, as not all refineries have the same set of processing units; the crude oil feed used by the refinery;

  9. Oil and gas producers must confront a “pivotal” choice: continue to accelerate the climate crisis or become part of the solution, the International Energy Agency said in a report Thursday.
