Fuel Testing. Fuel testing and analysis laboratory. Intertek fuel labs test diverse fuels for full quality specifications, and follow regulatory standards such as ASTM, ISO, and IP standards. In-house expertise and analytical resources make Intertek an ideal fuel testing provider for trouble-shooting, trace contamination issues, and the most demanding fuel analysis.
Measuring Fuel Use. For vehicles using carbon-based fuels (e.g., gasoline, diesel, natural gas, etc.), a hose is connected to the tailpipe to collect the engine exhaust during the tests. The carbon in the exhaust is measured to calculate the amount of fuel burned during the test. This is more accurate than using a fuel gauge. A different method is used for vehicles that run on non-carbon fuels, such as fuel cell vehicles and electric vehicles.
