Going slightly off topic, I set up and ran a flying school in Canada.
The core aeroplanes are Katanas fitted with Rotax 912S engines.
What is the correct fuel for these engines?
Mogas!
So we buy a Tidy tank, take it to the petrol station, and fill it with Shell V Power or Chevron 95 unleaded petrol.
Is there a problem?
Has there been a problem?
There be mountains, warm summers, has there been a problem?
If I followed the general population I would be fat! I am a little into the yellow BMI, so this has to be sorted. I am careful with what I put into my body, but deviate once in a while due to the presence of cake, biccies, and anything with custard.
I am careful with what fuel I personally use and that which I feed aeroplanes with.
In Holland I had to have a stuck valve attended to: lead!
Time and money spent that could be avoided if prior to Michael the owners had fed the engine with unleaded fuel.
100LL is occasionally acceptable, and 91UL used most of the time can dissolve some of the lead build up.
