I a have an old three wheeler that is a two stroke. woiuld it hurt to run alittle higher octane. considering that it is really old. Riht now i am just running pump gas. it is not a performance trike if that helps any, thanks in advance

 

Unless you are running somewhat of a hight comp, it isnt necessary to run anything other than pump gas. Unless you think current pump prices arent high enough and want to spend the extra on racing fuel...

 

Yah basically you'd be spending more money, getting less gas, and same performance.

 

You will not notice any diffrence unless you get oxygenated 116 octang fuel which costs 4-5 bucks a gallon.... No but seriously you dont need anything over 93 octang.

 

is the premium gas and stuff better or does it not mater with quads/trikes

 

not sure about premium type stuff in your part of the world but in the uk it has aditives to keep your engine clean

oh did i say aditives? sory i meant detergents, a nono for any 2 stroke engine,

if your determined to go to a higher octain forget the prmium pump stuff and get on aviation fuel.

higher octain fuels burn cooler so are better for your engine but thats it, you dont get any direct performance gains by using it,

 

If you had tried the search function, you would have found this thread that is only about a week old. Doctor turbo gives a good lesson on fuel.
