Abstract

PURPOSE:To obtain an additive which can be added to a methanol fuel to prevent the adhesion of a deposit to an injector nozzle or to enable the deposit to be removed even if adhered, by using a specified phenolic compound as the constituent. CONSTITUTION:A methanol fuel additive comprising a compound of the formula (wherein R<1> is 3-18C alkyl; R2 is H or 3-18C alkyl). Examples of the compound of the formula include hexylphenol, nonylphenol, dodecylphenol, and dinonylphenol. This additive is readily soluble in a methanol fuel oil and has no adverse effect on various metals and resins; therefore, it can be added to a fuel oil for a methanol engine car to prevent the adhesion of a deposit to the injector nozzle or to enable the deposit to be removed by washing even if adhered. It is desirable to use ammonia and/or amine compound (preferably a 8-18C aliphatic amine in respect of a cleaning effect) in combination with the compound of the formula since the cleaning effect can thereby be improved further.
