manonbicycle wat type of moped do u have? CHRIS SCHALTTER Got Balls? {XXX}******> ----Original Message Follows---- From: Manonbicycle <manonb-@webtv.net> Subject: Premium Gas My Tomos came new with instructions that indicated I would void the warranty if I used anything less than 98 octane gas. To stay legal with that I used octane booster religiously for the first 1200km.I was getting a lot of predetonation. I even bought some auto racing fuel on occasion , but it was only available on the far side of my city (about an hour on the moped one way).I was also obsessive about using only real gasoline and NO Gasohol. This all changed on my long trip when nothing but 89 or 91 gasohol was available across Illinois and Iowa. To my delight the ped seemed to run just fine on the stuff.I am of the belief that it might have even been better that a higher octane for extended daily use where the engine ran at maximum temperature for hours on end. Remember about oil..."Better a bit much all the time than too little once." see photos of my long distance moped trip http://community.webtv.net/manonbicycle/MANONBICYCLEWEBTV |
