Summary:

The effect of variation in fuel composition on exhaust emissions from a single-cylinder engine has been studied with eleven different fuels. Exhaust emissions, at fixed engine speed and load, were measured over a range of air-fuel ratio (A/F) settings. At identical A/F values, CO, HC, and NO emissions varied significantly from fuel to fuel. At the same equivalence ratio (), CO emissions were identical for all fuels. However, at fixed values, both NO and HC decreased with increasing fuel hydrogen-to-carbon ratio
