About This Clues Answer

We think the answer is "DIESEL" which means:

    noun
  • • An internal-combustion engine that burns heavy oil
  • • German engineer (born in france) who invented the diesel engine (1858-1913)
  • verb
  • • To ignite a substance by using the heat generated by compression
  • • For a spark-ignition internal combustion engine to continue running after the electrical current to the spark plugs has been turned off. this occurs when there's enough heat in the combustion chamber to ignite the air and fuel mixture without a spark, the same way that heat and pressure cause ignition in a diesel engine.

An example sentence would be:

  • • "I filled up my car with diesel at the gas station."
  • • "The diesel engine is more efficient than a gasoline engine."
