What fuel is best to use?

[Robert Bergeron]

For what it is worth , there is one alternative to useless, ethanol tainted, low quality gasoline : Avgas . It's rating is 100 Octane but it contains lead , high altitude additives and it is vapour lock proof . Use it in all my HMV ´s . It stays fresh , does not stale , needs no additives and the valve stems are lubricated. The engines start any time of year , any temperature even after sitting idle for 6-7 and in one case even 9 months. ... Added bonus it is blue , smells nice and there is no road tax....It sells for around $1.75 -$2 a litre . May be illegal , don't know , and it's no excuse. Stupid idea to add Ethanol to gasoline in the first place , it ruins expensive equipment and adds maintenance costs and troubles . It will be phased out soon ( years ) so use it while you can...but it is difficult to procure if you don't own a plane .When traveling i use Premium unleaded Shell V Power. Reputedly it does not contain ethanol . There i said it. Read it before i delete it . Cheers and very best good luck to all.
