I haven't tested other Octane levels yet.

But I do know that 2 gallons of 87 octane fuel in a drum of a cement truck standing up will shoot flames out the top about 15' in the air and also out the side door cut into the drum about 10' straight at me.....



I no longer have that drum so further testing will not happen.


That one involved a trip to the burn unit, and from that day on the name "Genius" has stuck with me.

Damn, I'd pay for a video of that!

Sorry, that was in the Nextel days and before pictures and videos. It was also when I was young and dumber

Just an update. I called every marina and Airport. Marinas are using Ethanol 10% gas just like every other gas station throughout the state. The Airports won't or can't sell in good faith unless they see the wings. lol
So I caved in and bought this 5 gallon can of gas.

Last one I bought was from ebay. $76 shipped from zorotools. I don't know how they do it for that price. It came by Southeastern freight truck to my work address.

I paid $69.95 for this.
I could have bought Sunoco Optima 95 octane fuel last week at a race in Thompson, CT for $59.95 at the show price, cash only. I was short and they wouldn't take a charge card.

I've seen the Trufuel 5 gallon jugs cheaper up in PA. It was only around $50 for the jug. Just no shipping.

Hell, I'll just fill a few mayonnaise jars and mail them, if anyone wants.

I suppose im fortunate to have e free in my area even if it is only 87.

This Ethanol crap has to stop. I know we need to break away from fossil fuels but this is not the magic bullet answer. I feel for members that have no 'choice' when it comes to ethanol.

How do we know what the octane truly is thats stated? Anyone know how to test?

I go by taste
