Foreword All text of this Standard is mandatory. This Standard was drafted as per the rules specified in GB/T 1.1-2009. This Standard replaces GB 17930-2011 Gasoline for Motor Vehicles. Compared with GB 17930-2011, and its No. 1 amendment; this Standard mainly has the following technical changes: --- Add Warning contents on the first page of text; --- Modify Chapter 4 Product Classification into: gasoline for motor vehicles (III) and (IV) are divided by the Research Octane Number to be three designations, namely, No. 90, No. 93, and No. 97; while gasoline for motor vehicles (V) is divided by the Research Octane Number to be four designations, namely, No.89, No. 92, No. 95 and No. 98 (see Chapter 4 of this Edition; Chapter 4 in Edition 2011); --- Modify Clause 5.1 into: gasoline for motor vehicles used additive shall have no recognized harmful effects, and use recommended appropriated dosage. Gasoline for motor vehicles shall contain no additives and contaminants that may cause the abnormal operation of the vehicles. Gasoline for motor vehicles shall not be artificially added with compounds, such as methylal, aniline, halogen, phosphorus, silicon containing, and etc. (see Clause 5.1 of this Edition; Clause 5.1 in No.1 amendment of GB 17930-2011); --- Modify Clause 5.2 into: technical requirements and test methods of gasoline for motor vehicles (III) and (IV) can refer to Table 1 and 2 respectively (see Clause 5.2 of this Edition); --- Add Clause 5.3: technical requirements and test methods of No. 89, No.92, and No.95 gasoline for motor vehicles (V) can refer to Table 3. When the enterprise is able to manufacture or sell No.98 gasoline for vehicle (V), its technical requirements shall conform to Annex A (see Annex A of this Edition); --- Add Table 3 Technical Requirements and Test Methods of Gasoline for Motor Vehicles (V) (see Table 3 of this Edition); --- Modify Clause 7.1 into: oiling machines and container sold to the users, and conformed to this Standard shall be marked with the following marks: No.90 gasoline (III), No.93 gasoline (III), No.97 gasoline (III), No.90 gasoline (IV), No.93 gasoline (IV), No.97 gasoline (IV), No.89 gasoline (V), No.92 gasoline (V), No.95 gasoline (V), or No.98 gasoline (V) ; the above marks shall be marked on the visible position for the vehicle driver (See Clause 7.1 of www.chinesestandard.net Page 3 of 14
Gasoline for Motor Vehicles Warning: If the users do not comply with proper precautions, the products mentioned in this Standard may be dangerous during the manufacturing, transporting, loading-unloading, storage, and using processes. This Standard is not intended to propose suggestions against all the safety issues related to the products. Before using this Standard, users are responsible for establishing proper safety and preventive measures, and determining the adaptability of relevant regulatory limitations. 1 Scope This Standard specifies the terms and definitions, product classification, requirements and test methods, sampling, marking, package, transportation, storage, safety of gasoline for motor vehicles; and the implementation of the standard.
