Examination for detonating qualities of 18 petroleum gasolines were made, methods used being those of direct engine tests and of chemical analysis; work confirms general belief that detonating tendency increases with rise in boiling point; indications are that petroleum gasolines of satisfactory anti-knock value are available and that detonating tendency of gasolines is best determined by direct engine test.
