the same. Gasoline is typically burned in spark-ignition internal combustion engines‚ in which a source of energy (a spark) is required to start the ignition process. Simply put‚ these engines mix gasoline vapor and air‚ compress the result‚ apply a spark to initiate combustion‚ and then force the byproducts of combustion out as exhaust. Gasoline is well suited to this process‚ although sometimes either it or engine operating conditions can cause "knock‚" an unwanted and destructive condition in
