Fossil fuel is running out of the quantity attributable to the increasing worldwide demand of fossil fuel andquantity of fuel fix. To overcome this situation, Waste plastic oil or a blend of waste plastic oil could be used in place offossil fuel. Waste plastic oil is produced by pyrolysis process. Another alternate bio-fuel is also available in the marketlike palm seed oil, Jatropha, Neem etc. Taguchi method is used to reduce the experiment run and it helps to get bestresult in short time. Experiments have been performed according to L27 orthogonal array were take 27 rows and 4columns at 3 factors with 4 parameters. In the research effect of the diffuser and waste plastic oil blend study anddiffuser attached at the exhaust manifold. Exhaust manifold, variable compression ratio, load and blend have beenselected parameters for improving the performance of the engine. Exhaust manifold has been modified by changing itsdraft angle. 100and 12.50 draft angles of exhaust manifold. Range of the parameters are (16, 17, 18) compression ratio,(100D0B, 50D50B, 0D100B) Blend, (2, 7, 12) Load. Combinations of all parameters have been taken to analyze BrakeThermal Efficiency, Specific Fuel Consumption, Fuel Consumption and Mechanical Efficiency.
