Pump gas
 
Has anyone, who uses pump fuel, noticed any difference between the various major brands of 93 unleaded, or is all the same quality.

I believe it will vary from region to region as well as time of year...I think I read a report that said there were nearly 100 different blends of gasoline for the US alone?

When I was sixteen, 260 was cheap and plentiful. Times have really changed, wish I could go back for a little while.

Your right Rob, a local distributor told me the same thing. He also advised not to use aviation fuels in land based vehicles. Said it has a whole different additive package and is blended much differently for the 'thinner air' where planes operate.

I have used aviation fuel blended with Sunoco 94 with no problems. I see no differance when blending with racing fuel from the track.

We have a Sunoco down here that sells 110 leaded right at the pumps. It is used by the air boats that run through the everglades. Popular with the gearheads too. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/smile.gif

By comparison it is cheap these days @ $5.25 gal.
the price has been the same for years.

I mix 1/2 *110 &amp; 1/2 *93, and my engines are very happy.

I don't know if there is a difference, buy i try to use Mobil or Shell, had a bad knocking experience at a BP/Amoco. Had only used them, but the quality seemed to lag.

Loads of places to get AV100 low lead, but I don't really like it. I had also heard that AV fuel was not good for the cars.
