- The problem of deposits in automotive induction systems arising from gasoline, while not new, has received renewed emphasis in recent years. This is because the demands for greater efficiency and output that have been made on automotive engines have resulted in more rigid requirements being imposed on the gasoline used. This problem was studied in a simple laboratory apparatus which gave results correlative with field experience. Our results showed that the formation of such deposits was due mainly to the thermal condensation or polymerization of oxygenated precursors formed during previous storage. This was demonstrated by the fact that tests with air and nitrogen atmospheres gave almost identical deposits, both in oxygen content and weight.
