Excerpt from Motor Gasoline: Properties, Laboratory Methods of Testing, and Practical Specifications

The analytical methods used for testing gasoline are of fairly recent development and the published descriptions of them are not found in standard textbooks. Some of the methods. Are decidedly unsatisfactory, having been devised to meet immediate needs when time did not permit thorough study of the factors involved. These methods meet tolerably well the needs of refiners who possess information regarding the sources of raw material and the method of production, but they do not suffice for the chemist 'who is given a sample of gasoline and requested to make a comprehensive state ment of its properties. Some of the tests in use are not standardized, and there are substantial differences in the methods of conducting them in various laboratories.
