100ll av gas in the summer and 87 e-free in the winter. The 100ll runs cooler in the summer and provides a bit more protection for the ported saws against detonation when they're hot and working hard... Plus 100ll doesn't spoil like regular gas does. You mileage may vary.

91 non/ox, best I can get for small engines here.

87 e10

e free, all I have available is 91 or 100ll. Course I can get 110-112which is oxegenated, or 118.
I parked my pro funny car yrs back so I will stick w/91,,,100ll when hot outside.

87 for me normally. I did buy some 90 the other day. Not sure I like it. Probably dump it in the wife's ride and go get more 87.

My 92' Chevy 350 4x4 likes 93 non-E

 

[jake wells]

i buy 87

 

[Ron660]

93 non-E is close to my work so that's what I use in all my 2-cycles. 87 non-E is available but it's several more miles away.

Stihl recommends 87 as it helps the saw run cooler. I run 92 e10 or 94 vp. Have ran 110 though....suckers ran like race saws. lol

With the higher octane fuels you can run a bit more timing advance because the higher octane usually has a slightly slower combustion as I understand it. With the oxygenated fuels, I'd think you'd have to re-tune to avoid running too lean. With M-tronic or Auto-tune, that goes out the window I suppose.

85 ethanol free

I've tried half to 3/4 of a key of advance and still can't get the 100 octane plus to run right. I never tried it with the 372xpw 2 piece. It's got enough compression to run good with methanol.

It's always run well in the 372 that Stumpy built me, or well enough that I didn't notice it misbehaving. There very well could be a better solution that I haven't experienced yet.

E0 90 octane since its the only fuel I can get for it with no ethanol.

It will run just not as good as it could be. I don't even like 90 octane out here. I like the 87 best. I actually dumped the 90 I bought into the wife's vehicle yesterday. I'll be going by a high volume E free station tomorrow and get 5-6 gallons or so then.

I use 87.
