Hosed At The Pump

tony sounds like you guy's need to invest in a small tanker truck(500 gal)and drive up there and park it,then every body can feed off gas that you know is good....LOL
 
The more i think about it, the only time my light ever comes on is when i buy from a certain gas station up north, doesn't matter the temp or lenth i hold it WOT. mmmm.... The last thing i want to do is run race fuel. That's okay if your doing hot laps in the backyard! but pretty tough to drag that drum around with yah, lol

I'm gonna get up anyways, I think the fuel quality is only gonna get worse year after year. And with more ethanol being introduced, it'sonly a matter of time before High test will have a percentage too.
 
NOT A QUESTION OF RUNNING RACE FUEL. MY SUGGESTION IS PREMIXING IT WITH PUMP PREM. 30/70 60/40 etc. IT WILL MAKE ALL THE DEFFERENCE. I DID THIS LAST NIGHT. 2 GALLONS OF 110 MIXED WITH 4 GALLONS PUMP PREM. RAN MY 2002 SRX LAST NIGHT PROBLEY ZERO HERE. LITE NEVER BLINKED . 3:16 (yammie tony)
 
The thing of it is the average joe how can he get his hands on race fuel,
being in the city great you could,but if your not your #$%&*,plus the price on the stuff,could only imagine what a 55 drum would run..
 
I KNOW, ITS A TUFF DEAL. THATS WHY I GUESS YOU JUST BUY A NEW 4 STROKE AND RIDE. ITS REALLY THE ONLY ANSWER. I HAVE BEAT THIS TOPIC TO DEATH ON vmax4.com. FUNNY, MORE AND MORE PICTURES OF ENGINES STARTED TO SHOW UP. 3:16 (yammie tony)
 
yea i know you've always talk about the gas thing, tony i have a small air
port by me,less then 2 miles away,would aviation fuel work watered down??

they fly small jets and piston powered plans outa there,so i imagine
there would be jet fuel too?????
 
PROBLEM IS GUYS OVER THERE WANT TO RUN QUADS. ITS BEEN 12 YEARS AGO NOW SINSE THESE SLED WERE NEW. TIMES HAVE CHANGED. JET FOR POWER, WHICH MEANS DOWN, YOU BETTER RUN GOOD FUEL. RUN STOCK JETS WITH QUADS , SEE NO GAINS. THEY NEVER UNDERSTOOD THAT. NOW. ARTICLES ARE APPEARING FROM GUYS THAT KNOW A HELL ALOT MORE ABOUT THIS THAN ME. 3:16 (yammie tony)
 
aircraft grade fuel will work (the stuff your talking about is called 100LL) but its only 100octane and you have to mix it with premium, because aircraft fuel, is alot dryhier (did i spell that right lol, dont forget i speak mainly french haha) than automotive grade fuel. So with a mix of 100ll and premium you should be able to get 95-96 octane in the tank. But i dont really like that stuff either, it works but it was designed for planes that run in high altitudes, completely different conditions than land vehicules. I've run it a litle bit when i started drag racing cars 15 years ago, but quickly switched to racing fuel, not comparable. You get what you pay for!
 
thanks turbor...
