Abstract: Experiments about engine performance using alcohol-gasoline blend as a fuel are studied. A conventional 4cycle 4cylinder gasoline engine is used. Measurements on torque, output, specific fuel consumption, and emissions are made over ignition tim-ing and mixing ratio. Up to vol. 15% of alcohol, torque and output using alcohol-gasoline blend are al-
most same with using only gasoline, and specific fuel consumption is improved about 7 %. In emissions alcohol-gasoline blend is more effective than gasoline.
