I don't know. I was wondering if it was possible to determine a better
calculation for fuel conversion utilising the testing that is derived to
calculate RON and MON. It becomes clear that back of envelope calcs are
good for that purpose only.

re: your post, that'd be the final word as there is not a another system
attempting to use the "power". Refer Ignition system.

So how much extra fuel would I be using by having my car air-conditioner set
at 23 degrees rather than 24 degrees ?
