Can I use VP racing fuel in my car?
You can put some racing fuels in normal cars, but there is no real reason for you to do this. These fuels have higher octane ratings, so are designed to perform at higher temperatures and pressures. There is generally no noticeable performance gain when they are used to fuel consumer vehicles.
Can you run a normal car on nitromethane?
The engine wouldn’t run. It requires a much richer fuel/air mixture than gasoline does. It takes one pound of gasoline to burn 14.7 pounds of air, it takes one pound of nitromethane to burn 2.5 pounds of air.
Is CAM2 unleaded?
Cam 2 is available in 110, 112, and 116 octane leaded, and 100 and 104 unleaded. Please refer to the specs and MSDS for the Sunoco fuels listed above.
Can you run airplane fuel in a car?
If its aviation gasoline for piston engines, called AVGAS, it will probably work, it has higher octane than what you buy at the local service station but is basically gasoline. The higher octane will retard any preignition so it should run. It may have lead additives, using it a lot will kill your catalytic converter.
Can you put 100 octane gas in any car?
Yes, you can use a higher octane fuel than that recommended for your car. It will not hurt your car in any way, but it will cost you more – for no benefit. You should not use any fuel with a LOWER octane than that recommended for you car though.
What is the difference between nitrous oxide and nitromethane?
Nitro methane is a fuel used by top class Drag bikes/cars and is in no way similar or linked to nitrous oxide. In fact they couldn’t be more different, as nitro methane is a flammable fuel, while nitrous oxide is a non-flammable oxidiser.
How is nitromethane different from gasoline?
Nitromethane is a little like gasoline that has been pre-mixed with nitrous oxide. The fuel comes with its own oxygen atoms to help it burn. This means that, compared to gasoline, you can pump about 8 times more nitromethane into a cylinder of a given volume and still get complete combustion.
What is CAM2 fuel?
CAM2 12/12 oz Octane Booster. CAM2 55 Gallon Octane Booster. CAM2 Octane Booster is an effective treatment for knocks, pings and after-run (dieseling). It neutralizes combustion acids, and protects the fuel system against rust & corrosion. This booster is also effective with methanol and alcohol fuel mixtures.
Who makes CAM2 race fuel?
“Cam 2” is the generic name used for Sunoco Race Fuels.
Can you use diesel in a jet engine?
A jet engine can run on diesel, however being a lesser refined fuel, it wouldn’t be the best idea to do so, unless your flights were in warm weather and low altitudes. Jet engines can run on diesel if the fuel system and combustion chamber is designed to do so.
Can you use cam2 boost in a car?
Can be used in gas cans, tanks, cars, trucks, boats, ATVs, snow mobiles, lawn mowers, snow blowers, chain saws, generators, and any 2 or 4 stroke gasoline fueled engine. CAM2 OCTANE BOOSTER is an effective treatment for knocks, pings and after-run (dieseling). Does running the AC in your car use additional fuel?
What happened to cam2?
In 1981, Sun Oil decided to divide the CAM2 business. The fuels sector became Sunoco Race Fuels, and everything else was sold to a startup in Colorado. I looked hard at the CAM2 web site. They no longer sell fuels, but they have just about everything else you want. There are three companies that make most of the racing fuel – Sunoco, Torco and VP.
What is the use of acam2 octane booster?
CAM2 OCTANE BOOSTER is an effective treatment for knocks, pings and after-run (dieseling). Does running the AC in your car use additional fuel? Originally Answered: Does running the AC in your car really burn gas?
Can you put high octane fuel in a low compression engine?
High compression engines need high octane fuel. Putting high octane fuel into a low compression engine will not make it a high compression engine.
