Most (all?) oil companies will tell you that mogas is not approved for aviation
use. There are a number of reasons for this but one is the much greater
compositional variability of mogas compared with avgas. This has little to do
with additives, which are used at very low treat rates, but

fascinating experiences with varying petrol brands particularly

Why not just 91, 95 98 octane petrol/fuel?
