Abstract

The paper presents results of operating testing of passenger car Ford Fiesta 1.8D, furnished with an additional installation for fuelling the engine by crude rapeseed oil. Testing was carried out of load characteristics, compression pressure, level of external noise during stoppage of the vehicle and the temperature distribution on particular elements of the engine. To allow an ecological analysis of the engine presented were results of testing of exhaust gas smoke logging. The studies indicate that the use of rapeseed oil does not cause the lowering of power or torque, and has no adverse impact on the operation of the injection pump. Pressure, noise level and smoke logging value did not differ (within error limits) from results obtained for diesel oil.
