Two automotive engines run on dynamometer test stands; operational areas considered include road load, part throttle and full load; data indicate that increases in road load fuel economy in order of 10% are possible with such engines, but that under these conditions they become knock limited on commercial type gasolines at part throttle, rather than full load; with fuels of zero sensitivity, full throttle results continue to predict maximum octane requirement.
