G'day All, Make sure you download the safety data sheet for any fuel you are considering using.
Many fuels contain heaps of volatiles like xylene toluene etc. Basically they add paint thinners to boost the octane rating. This stuff evaporates quickly and your octane rating plummets quickly. We had detonation once after fuel sat around for only about 4 weeks. We put up a sound recording on Nigel's web page here http://www.limbachaustralia.com/downloads-useful-information/ You will need good speakers to hear the detonation. It is like a rattling sound. BP premium in Australia only uses benzine to boost the octane and no alcohol. The discounted fuels tend to have the additives. regards Rob Rob Thompson 0429 493 828
