Does anyone use AV Gas in there DS? what is wrong with av gas? is it ok, if you mix with race gas? I can get av gas out of the pump for about 2bucks a gal. way cheaper than race fuel.

 

Avgas is nice because it is consistant, like race gas.
It doesn't change with the seasons, "oxyagenated", or sometimes contain alcohol or other additives like car gas.
It does contain lead and should not be used with "cats" or O2 sensors.
Also I have heard that some two stroke oils don't stay mixed with it but I have never had this problem with BelRey MC1+
Beware of "old wives tales" about avgas. You will hear lots of incorrect rumors.

Give it a try, you will probably like it.

 

Some people claim its hard on engines but i know my bud runs it and has great luck and almost zero soot in his pipe it burns so clean.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

 

If airplanes trust it when the are anywhere from 0feet to 35,000feet. I would think it will be safe to run, i mean come on. Just add a cap of oil to everytime u feel ur tank up with it. That way it wont burn to dry and it will keep everything lubed good. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] Lance

 

what kind of oil would you put in? 2-storke or just alittle 4 stoke oil?

hey AZ did you ever get that 25hp motor for your cart? What shop did it?

 

My uncle runs avgas in his 68 z28 and has never had a problem. His father in law is an airplane mechanic, runs a flight school, and runs a local airport. He says I shouldnt run av gas in my raptor because the airplane engines are designed differently and the altitude has an effect as well. I may not know a lot, but I trust him.
