An accelerated test was developed in which the gasoline sample was placed in a 16-ounce glass bottle and heated in an oven at 93.8/sup 0/ C (200/sup 0/ F) for 16 hours. The amount of gum and insoluble residue and the oxygen content of the bottle outage at the end of the 16-hour oven test was used to predict the amount of gum and residue that would be formed in 43.3/sup 0/ C storage for any period up to 32 weeks. Since 32 weeks at 43.3/sup 0/ C is equivalent to over 5 years storage at 26.7/sup 0/ C (80/sup 0/ F), this prediction method was judged to be adequate to predict stability of motor gasoline in any practical storage.
