New Standard from Last Update.

1 SCOPE

1.1 This standard prescribes requirements, methods of sampling and test methods for E12 fuel, an admixture of anhydrous ethanol meeting IS 15464 at 12 percent by volume and ethanol free motor gasoline meeting IS 2796 at 88 percent volume and E15 fuel, an admixture of anhydrous ethanol meeting IS 15464 at 15 percent by volume and ethanol free motor gasoline meeting IS 2796 at 85 percent volume, for use as a fuel in the automobile positive-ignition internal combustion engines of vehicles complying with BS VI emission norms.

1.2 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety problems associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this specification to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
