It seems like a lot of people on here say i heard from so and so dont run it or i heard so and so blew a motor while running it. But, when you talk with engine builders they say it is far superior to any pump gas. With that said it is in no way race fuel, but if youre on the verge of pinging with 93, the 100LL will keep it from doing so.....

I hear ya, I run it in everything I have that doesnt have an 02 sensor. Never had a fuel system problem and most of the toys sit for 6 months to a year between uses........

Back in the 80s I ran 100 LL av gas mixed with 89 reg octane. This mixture was tested by gulf labs and came out to be 95 octane. I mixed 5 gal reg to 1 gallon av gas. I ran two blower for years and never had any issues. It was just a pain pumping the ave gas from a drum.

This probably explains why engines that you have run it in are so exceptionally clean inside.
