The invention relates to a motor fuel for diesel, gas-turbine and jet engines, including standard engines, comprising a mixture of organic compounds containing bound oxygen, and optionally a hydrocarbon fraction. The fuel is a stable homogeneous liquid at atmospheric pressure and normal ambient temperature and achieves a reduction of harmful pollutants in the exhaust emissions of the engines. Organic compounds containing oxygen, which compounds contributes to at least a total of four different oxygen-containing functional groups, are employed in the fuel composition. The total concentration of organic compounds containing bound oxygen in the fuel composition generally varies from 5 % and to 100 % of the total volume of the fuel composition, and the concentration of the hydrocarbon compounds varies, correspondingly, from 95 % to 0 % of the total volume of the fuel composition.
