What gas do you use?

[BLUEKNIGHT911]

93 OCTANE

I know full well that I'm going to get FLAMED for this statement but here goes .........If you are using 93 Octane in your Spyder you should Google "Octane" and find out what it is and what it does....... After you have gained this knowledge and still want to spend .30 + extra per gallon of gas , at least you will be an informed ????? ( fill in the blank )....................Your all very welcome, Mike :thumbup:

Thanks! :thumbup:

Based upon their explanation; is that why they suggest lower octane fuel at elevation, or at lower ambient temperatures?

 

[Jeriatric]

The last two sentences of the article pretty much says it all. Other than where it mentioned pre ignition due to carbonation.

Keeping things as carbon free as possible is key. How each Indavidual decides to do that has been debated here on many occasions(as you well know). I use chevron high test, and when it is not available, I substitute 2oz of MMO per fill up.

This works for me. Others will have their way of doing things. As always.....it's a personal choice/belief thing.

Thanks! :thumbup:

I use use premium gas in everything, even our lawn mowers.


If you're worried about an extra $50 in gas a year from using premium in all your vehicles, you should get rid of some and buy a Honduh....like a Civic, not a bike. Lol

 

[Bob Denman]

:agree: Particularly in an air-cooled engine... The extra "stability" of the higher octane, can mae a difference as things heat up...
Save money by buying cheaper toilet paper, and stale bread!

Well you are correct

Almost every Honduh, no matter how many wheels, is engineered to run on 87 octane.

WELL THAT IS IN THE EYE OF THE BEHOLDER

...................Maybe, but not wasting that .30 + has allowed me to spend it on 2 Cobra's, 2 Spyder's, 4 Snowmobiles, and 1 1934 Mercedes Benz 500 K, plus my everyday ordinary truck.............So there is reason to my " TIGHTNESS " :gaah: :clap: :yes::yes::yes::yes::yes::yes::yes::yes::yes:...Mike :thumbup::roflblack::roflblack::roflblack::roflblack::roflblack::roflblack::roflblack::roflblack::roflblack:
