Octane Gas Test - 661

[Mastermind]

The Mtronic and Autotune saws don't behave like a normal saw to fuel/oil changes. To see the differences, you gotta be able to tune the engine.

What about the canned fuels?
Anyone ever test the 40:1 trufuel at 91 octane vs the 40:1 VP at 94 octane?
Seems the canned fuel boys would have good control of their inputs eh?

I know which one I prefer.

Which one?

 

[Mastermind]

Yeah.

 

[Hedgerow]

May not be trendy, but I prefer the Trufuel.

I know which one you prefer also,I had to move a can of it to get in your truck.

That wasn't what I moved. Lol

 

[Hedgerow]

But the VP packaging is way more cooler.

Lol..

It was on sale. I keep some canned stuff around for non daily use. I like that it never goes bad.

Looked expensive

Lol..

If this circle crank saw doesn't grenade I'll have it with me the 2nd. I think it's going to run pretty good.

It is.. Stupid high if you ask me..

I just run pump gas for everyday use. As long as it gets used up in a week or 2. After that, I let Levi put it in his truck. lol.

Ive used the 40to1 in my 550 . Ran good on it

Being trendy is over rated......

 

[Hedgerow]

Truth..

 

[KenJax Tree]

Here VP sells an actual gallon(128oz) and Trufuel is 110oz. For the same price also it could mess with your ratios....and stuff

 

[Backtroller]

Here's something to consider, I was talking to a tanker driver once who told me that if you buy 89 or a mid grade fuel that octane varies greatly. If he has left over premium or 87 it goes in the mid grade tank. If he was being truthful, I really question what comes out of any pump. We've all had a tank or two of "bad" gas from time to time.

I think VP is probably the only certainty for true octane stated ratings. Probably canned fuels too are dead on.

 

[jmssaws]

I always heard the mid grade was 93 and 87 mixed

 

[Hedgerow]

Run some E-85 and Klotz..

Report back your findings.

That's correct. I know a guy that inspects underground storage tanks. He said, best I remember, it's a 60/40% mix of 87 and 93.
