im doing this project for chemistry and you have to make a video on the topic of your choice, but it has to do with chemistry. being the guy who erads car mags in class, i decided to do mine on different fuels for cars.

just wondering about diesel fuel and alcohol. whats different about them from Gasoline. and do they have different octane levels too? like Gasoline? those are really the only two fuels idont know much about. thanks in adavence for any info. i promise to show you guys the video when im done, if u want.

video's would be awesome, but be careful with the fuels. Not sure how your school is going to like you burning them or anything :P

I believe the higher the octane fuel, the slower the burn rate. I would honestly do some research online. Google is going to be your best friend on this one.
