Yes, but I wasn't referring to the title, I was referring to your post.
Unless you somehow think a gasoline motor has more energy in than out?
Those are your words, are they not.
You’re going through all of this over a typo?
Treat the gas motor as a black box. How do you test it? You make it do some work, like running a car. It runs for 50 miles on one gallon of gasoline. You test another black box, another car. With the same gallon of gasoline, it goes 200 miles. And a third car goes 500 miles. All 3 cars on the same circular race track. Simple question: Which black box has the highest energy density, and how much more than the lowest?
