ABSTRACT:
Disclosed is a fuel for Otto cycle internal combustion engines. The fuel comprises a blend of a gasoline (A) and methanol (B) in a ratio of 10:90 to 30:70 by volume, based on the total volume amount of (A) and (B). Gasoline (A) is obtained by the steps of, (i) selectively hydrotreating a thermally cracked gasoline obtained by thermally cracking petroleum hydrocarbons, (ii) subsequently distilling the thermally cracked gasoline to divide said cracked gasoline into three fractions (1), (2) and (3) which fractions contain hydrocarbons having a carbon number of 5 and less, from 6 to 8, and 9 and more, respectively, and (iii) mixing the two fractions of (1) and (3) either in a ratio which is the same as that in which the two fractions were obtained by the distillation or in a ratio of 50:50 to 90:10 based on the total volume amount of (1) and (3).
