| Title: | A Highway Test of Gasohol |
| Author: | Klosterman, Harold J.; Kaufman, Kenton R. |
| Description: | Tests were conducted using two 1976 Ford Torinos in which the fuel economy using gasohol was compared with that obtained using unleaded gasoline. It was found that gasohoI gave 3% fewer miles per gallon than the unleaded gasoline under typical summer highway driving conditions in North Dakota. This difference was found to be statistically significant at the 99% level of confidence. The reduced fuel economy with gasohol appears to be directly proportional to the lower energy content of gasohol. |
