Re: 110 octane fuel
Octane is power you notice the difference believe me if a 5.7 chevy has 135 compresion isnt that higher than a boat motor i was just wondering about if its cleaner and a more pure gas cause i only have to ride 30 min to get the gas its like putting nitro on car almost but really only 108 octane i like i know there has to be someone who knows about it cause alot of racers use it
Octane alone does not produce more power. Boy Racers will tell you anything and everything produces "more power'.
Show me their dyno printout comparing outputs at different octane levels. Untill I se the numbers, it's all just BS.
The truth is that higher octane can only be a benefit when the engine is designed and calibrated to run on that octane. In aviation, high-octane fuels of up to 145 are common, but as many Boy Racers have found out, if you put 130 green into a car, rather than getting "more power" what they get is a car that runs like crap.
Also, where are you getting this 130 octane? If you ARE getting Av Gas (and I suspect you are) you should know that it is illegal in many states to use that fuel in anything except an aircraft because it contains lead. And yes, in some states this DOES include watercraft.
Please leave the Av Gas to the people who know how to use it properly.
