Stick Shifts & Safety Belts Badge #20
April 26th, 2016
For requirement number 20, it wanted me to research different types of fuel available for today's cars.
Different types of fuel are: gasoline, diesel, liquefied petroleum, compressed natural gas, ethanol, and bio-diesel.

Also it asked what do the different octane ratings mean.
Octane ratings definition: Octane rating or octane number is a standard measure of the performance of an engine or aviation fuel. The higher the octane number, the more compression the fuel can withstand before detonating (igniting).
Our car uses the number 87 for its octane number at the gas station.
The last thing the requirement wanted me to do was to calculate the gas mileage of our car.

Our gas mileage for our car is 20mpg.
