What is the fuel consumption rate of a gasoline engine under standard conditions?
Look back at the definition of gasoline engine consumption in the section.
How much does a diesel engine consume under standard conditions?

What is the primary fuel consumption rate for a gasoline engine?
Look at the section on gasoline engine consumption.
True or False: Diesel engines always consume more fuel than gasoline engines.
Consider the comparative statistics given for each engine type.
A loader consumes 0.1 gallons per horsepower hour at standard conditions. Calculate the fuel needed if the loader has a horsepower of 600 and operates at 75% efficiency for a duration of 5 hours.
Ensure you multiply standard consumption by horsepower and efficiency then by hours.
If a diesel machine operates on rough terrain consuming 0.15 liters per horsepower hour, how much fuel will it need for a task requiring 10 hours at 500 horsepower, assuming 60% load factor?
Calculate based on the operational factor, ensuring you keep the consumption rates adjusted.
