Can this be an efficient engine design?
(OP)
Can a direct injection petrol engine of compression ratio 13:1, or around that much, be designed to run on fuel of low octane number, say about 87, without knocking? I think it is possible if the fuel is injected just at the end of the compression stroke like in a diesel engine.
