No, there is a limit to how much can burn inside the cylinder, it's better 
to dump in slightly above this amount rather than slightly below it.  Of 
course modern engines can control electronically the amount of fuel way more 
accurately, and especially in road cars you certainly don't want to be 
wasting fuel out the back!
