The extdiel value is indeed used, although it is not printed; (this will be
fixed in the next release). You can check this by examining the code, or
just by running a short simulation (or a single point) with various values of
extdiel to see what happens.
However, it is by no means sure that just setting an appropriate value of
extdiel will give you results characteristic of octane; I don't think this has
ever been tested. So, please proceed with caution.
