It adds its own oil to the mix but will Regular unleaded (87 octane) work ? I saw a local gas station advertising "Boat Gas" but don't know what they re selling. BTW: I don't have the boat/motor here yet, its coming up from Florida next month so I can't RTFM BTW2: Reg Unl here is sold in liters (think Quarts) @ $ 140.9 That's working out to $ 5.32 gallon and a NEW tax kicks in that should push it up to $ 5.40..SWMBO says its up to 145.9 today, thats $ 5.51 US gallon OUCH ! When I had my Bayliner 2350 back in the 80's, "Marine gas" was Regular LEADED gas and was about 15 cents/Gal cheaper (72 cents) than "road" gas because there were no "Highway" taxes on it.Do they still sell "marked gas" (No/Low tax) for farm/off road purposes ? Is it UNLEADED ? Will that work in a two stroke (if I could find any)? Where the heck are you? Uranus? Some place off planet for leaded gas, or at least a 3rd world country. |
