replace fuels and the addition of certain ingredients to fuel oil. Therefore, one way
to use bioaditives. Various types of bioadditive one of which is cajeput oil.
Cajeput oil is a bioaditive derived from cajeput oil tree and filtered to produce
cajeput oil .In this study, researchers used experimental research methods to
determine the effect of the use of cajeput oil (without cajeput oil, 3% cajeput oil,
6% cajeput oil, 9% cajeput oil) on performance. Tests carried out by taking three
experiments at each engine speed of 1500 rpm, 2000 rpm, 2500 rpm, 3000 rpm,
3500 rpm, 4000 rpm, 4500 rpm, 5000 rpm, 5500 rpm, 6000 rpm. Data analysis
techniques used Two Way Anova to find out the significance of changes in
performance. Based on the analysis of research data, it can be concluded that
using cajeput oil, there was a change in torque at the addition of 3% cajeput oil
from standard conditions, an increase of 1.92% with a peak torque of 11.64 Nm, a
change in torque at the addition of 6% cajeput oil at 1.05% with a peak torque of
11.54 Nm. Torque decreased at the addition of 9% cajeput oil from standard
conditions of 0.17% with a peak torque of 11.40 Nm

The decreasing supply of petroleum at this time
will be estimated to run out in 15-20 years, therefore
making scarcity of fuel oil will be difficult to avoid. Ideas
about alternative fuels began to be considered, both the
search for new fuels to replace fuels and the addition of
certain ingredients to fuel oil
Pertalite is a fuel oil for motor vehicles that are widely
used in Indonesia. In general, Pertalite is used to fuel
motorized vehicles, such as cars, motorbikes and others.
Pertalite includes non-renewable fuels, so that
alternative fuels have now been developed to save on fuel
consumption, such as biofuels and add additives to fuel oil.
An additive is an ingredient added to fuel oil that aims to
improve combustion performance or perfect combustion in
the engine combustion chamber, so that the power produced
becomes greater.
One type of additive that can be used as an alternative
fuel is bio-additive, which is an additive derived from
oil.
Cajeput oil can be used as a bio additive because it
dissolves in fuel, and from the results of the analysis of its
constituent components contain a lot of oxygen, so it is
expected to increase fuel combustion in the engine. Another
thing that is quite important is the compound space The oil
compiler is in an open chain, which can reduce the bonds
between the fuel constituent molecules, so it is expected that
the combustion process will be more effective.
2. LITERATURE REVIEW
 COMBUSTION ENGINE
Engine is a device that functions to convert thermal
energy from combustion of fuel into mechanical energy,
where the combustion process takes place in the engine
cylinder itself so that the combustion gas fuel that occurs
directly is used as a working fluid to do mechanical work
(Wardono, 2004) [1].
