C+O2=CO2
This implies 1 atom of C uses 32g Oxygen (not air)

½H2+¼O2=½H2O
This implies every atom of H consumes 8g of Oxygen (not air)

The above also imply that 1 atom of C consumes 4 times more Oxygen than 1 atom of H. Therefore, the more the no of Carbon atom in the formula of a fuel the more will be the oxygen consumption.

Diesel and petrol are mixtures of hydrocarbons without any specific formulae. Benzol is a mixed with Diesel to enhance efficiency. However, energetically Diesel is more efficient than Petrol. This implies, heat of combustion of Diesel is more. Hence it uses more Oxygen from air.
