A lot of what project farm measures and tests is irrelevant- eg. taking the head off every 10 mins of running to analyze some tiny amount of ‘carbon buildup’, or comparing engine temp that’s a few degrees off between 2 tests where the engines are no load and probably hasn’t reached the max temp- and extrapolating this to eg. ‘lubrication increase- lower temp’. Can’t remember much, I don’t usually watch it but there’s a lot. He’s basically measuring everything he can, not what’s best for that test

The cool thing about lighter fluid is that you can store it for many years and it doesn't go bad. Its very close to regular naphtha used in camp stoves. That may also work and would still be expensive but cheaper than the lighter fluid and would be store well and if it worked like the lighter fluid in the engine it would be a great emergency replacement for gasoline

Higher octane doesn't make your car go faster , it's just more resistant to compression detonation , high performance engines have a higher compression ratio which would make lower octane fuel ignite on it's own before the spark and you would get knock. So from this video I gather that the zippo fluid is actually lower octane (the knock at the beginning) and it would also make the engine a bit peppier since it probably has a lower than speck compression due to it being old and worn out

The fuel injector rail returns left over fluid to the pump and into the gas tank again so the fuel pump can run constantly with consistent load. Hence the yellow came from left over petrol in the fuel injector rail.

Back in the 60s, on my way to work, ran out of gas and rolled to a stop in front of a convenience store, with a gas station in sight in the distance. Ran into the store and bought a few large cans of lighter fluid which got me to the gas station. Not recommended for long periods of time due to preignition. Lighter fluid, nail polish remover, acetone, all the same except for the perfume. Much later, in the 80s I found I was running low on fuel in my diesel rabbet on an interstate in Indiana with a few miles to go to a truck stop. Turned off the interstate into a small town with a grocery store. Went inside and bought a couple of bottles of pure corn oil. Back on the interstate, low power, top speed 45mph, low mileage, smell of French fries all the way to the diesel pump at the truck stop. No bad side effects. Wouldn't recommend it as a regular diet, but doable in a pinch.

There was a guy at tech school who actually did that. He looked and acted just like Jim from Taxi, back when the show was running. He wasn't quite all there. One of the instructors had him charge oil to the parts desk and change the oil in one of his friend's cars, that he had brought to the school. Took something like 3 cases to fill a small block Chevy to the top of the valve covers. Somehow nobody around caught it, and it only became obvious when the instructor saw all the cases and empty bottles laying around. They had to drain it down to the fill level, and clean the plugs several times as it took a few runs before they stopped fouling.

WD-40 mainly kerosene. A diesel engine can run on kerosene without any problems. A petrol engine is more complicated. If you take a cold petrol engine, and feed it kerosene, it will flatly refuse to start. But if you start the engine up on petrol, run it to normal operating temperature, and then switch the fuel to kerosene, that very same engine will now happily run on kerosene. Cars can run on kerosene, but you won't get much mileage, and your power output will be reduced.

The lighter fluid used to be available in europe unbranded at some gas stations and was used for example for dangerous welding devices to have a cleaner burn without harming the user. That is if you manage to heat them up without setting yourself or your property on fire. (they are probably not allowed for 50 years now) I remember buying the same fluid and it costed only 2 x the price of normal gasoline it worked the same as the zippo fluid, but at a fraction of the cost. So basically you might have discovered something. I see the same type of fuel still being sold for machines to have a cleaner burn. That is a about 20 EU for 5 liters branded for machine use.

A large portion of the petroleum distillate blend in gasoline is naptha (same thing as lighter fluid), so I don't see why it wouldn't work. Only thing is that it misses the detergents and other components of gasoline (heptane, xylene, toulene, etc.) that would determine the proper octane rating. Will run, but some things will be off a bit.

The fuel system would still have residue petrol in it when the lighter fuel was put in. Its fuel injected so it has a fuel rail, injectors, fuel filter, fuel pump etc, these things would all hold fuel when the car stopped running after the petrol ran out. The system returns unused fuel to the fuel container to keep the pressure constant in the fuel rail, this would contaminate the pure lighter fuel in the container hence the yellow colour at the end. No conspiricy here :)

I don't know much about gasoline, but I do know about Zippos having owned several over the last 30 years. The thing about Zippo fuel is that it has to burn completely. It can't leave any traces behind. Think about it, after a while, you burn the stuff that burns, but the lighter becomes clogged with stuff that doesn't burn. You could put some of the fuel on like a fire resistant material and burn it. Observe to results. First, how easy it is to light it with just a spark. Zippo fuel is highly flammable. Second, look at anything you can burn and look at the results after. Zippo fuel is the only one that leaves nothing behind. Like alcohol leaves a tiny amount of water. Some sort of petrol leaves some types of oils. Diesel wont even fire up if it's not heated.

Nowadays, low octane fuel in russia is hard to find. Usually the lowest octane fuel on the gas stations is 92, sometimes you can find 80-octane fuel but it's very rare. Though, you're right about the quality.

Lighter fluid doesn't have any lubricants in it though. The engine will blow faster with the thinner fuel. It'll Knock without the octane lube in it. Blow it up. Let's see the flames. Alot of power though.

Zippo Lighter Fluid is a light petroleum distillate known as Naphtha, and has been looked at as a low soot-low NOx emission alternative to standard gasoline. I can't find any numbers online about the octane rating of Naphtha, but I would assume that its not got that great of an octane rating, as it was not formulated to run in gasoline engines. Gasoline alternative Naphtha though, if you can find it, may have comparable octane to pump gas.

In the UK at least Zippos and lookalikes are also sometimes referred to petrol lighters. Gas station petrol works just fine in them, much cheaper too 😁

I think is just has a bit lower octane rating. If you boosted it with something or added higher octane rating fuel to the mix it would work just like any gasoline.
