That "Blue Power" sure does look like 100LL Aviation gasoline. I'd bet it smells just like it too. I pumped thousands and thousands of gallons of it in my younger years.
I've been running 100LL mixed with Bel-Ray H1R for yrs now. I've had great luck.
I run 91 octane non-ethanol mixed with Echo red armor oil in all 12 of my saws and other 2 stroke equipment. Never had an issue starting or running any of them. I run Echo, Makita, Stihl and Husqvarna saws.
Years ago, back in the 80s I bought racing gas from Sunoco. It was a heavy lead based gas and it also had a blue tint and a pleasant odor to it. It burned super clean!
The standard pump gas test fuel is Amoco premium ethanol free gas found to be the most consistant octane fuel used for production engine durability and power development by the automotive engine manufacturers, If you're looking for 100 or 110 octane go to the airport for av gas. As a youngster when racing snowmobiles we used av gas and Mercury Marine 50 ; 1 oil and mixed it rich at close to 45 ; 1 My experience has always been that a fouled sparkplug is less costly to replace than piston rings and cylinders.
I been running the VPR for dirt bikes and I love it.
Hey cotontop.. I went ahead and subscribed.. Love your sawchain sharpening video! And also love reading through the comments and how guys chime in.. I did notice only one guy using the non-ethanol and Amsoil Interceptor 2 Stroke oil. I use to forget to dump the fuel at the end of the cutting season and pay for it dearly in the spring.. having to tear into the carbs & clean out the varnish crap and then fight to get them started.. Since ive been using the Amsoil "Saber" 2 stroke oil 100:1 ive never looked back.. Stihl 660, husky 372 XP wide open in the heat of the summer then leave the Buc-ees 100% in year round.. I will put my exhaust ports and top of pistons against anything else there is & I will be cleaner and last longer.. Thats my 2 bucks worth! Oh yea God Bless all yall!!
Very cool 👍🏻
Non ethanol gas and Amsoil Interceptor 2 Stroke oil. Done.
I have mixed 110 and 93 for years. I used to race a trx250r and that was my mix for it. I used Belray 2 cycle oil back then. Now I use the VP racing 2cycle oil
I have been using the VP 2cycle oil in my equipment for quite a while. It runs cleaner and the fuel doesn't go bad as fast.
Gotta love those VP birdseed jugs.
Tim, thanks for sharing!
I understand what you mean by the stinky smell of gas. My Dad was a private pilot and when I would check the fuel tank sump for water I was always surprised at how the gas didn’t stink.
Bel-Ray H1-R is the mix oil I run. Came to that decision after running five different oils for almost a year. 40:1 with 91 or better non ethanol gasoline. Would run the motul without hesitation based on my own testing.
Good stuff Tim, You are a bit of a scientist on top of everything else👌👍🙏😎
I run VP 94 octane non ethanol. My equipment is older from doing lawn maintenance. I don’t run my saws much anymore but they start up right away with this gas and run very clean. Thanks phor sharing!
I also use non ethanol, it doesn't smell bad like regular gasoline and the engines are much cleaner inside, hoses and carburetor last much longer

😂😆
I’ve been meaning to request this video, so thanks!!!
Your saws love you lol
I use the off road version. $32 a liter though. I use Torco race gas the storage one 94 octane.
I'm sold on the off road version too, allegedly it should also have more detergents than offroad, so it helps with deposits and keeping stuff clean. Every one of my saws looks mint on the inside ever since I started using this, some even with 1000+ hours on it, original piston and jug. 33:1 mix, regular e10 100 octane pump gas (e10 is 5% ethanol in my country). I do run some Aspen alkylated gas through my saws when storing them for more than a week. Keeps the inside protected from benzene/ethanol issues and they start on 1st pull.
Tim what chain would you recommend for a 16 inch MS 180 c for cutting oak and pecan wood. I also cut fat lightered pine with my saw? Any help would be very appreciated. Thanks love the videos I have learned a lot from watching you it's a .043 chain
Thanks for sharing👍
Should look into klotz snowmobile oil. Its good stuff as well
Ive used motul oils for last five years in moped engines that I ve built not one oil related failure in hundreds of gallons of fuel plugs and rings last so much longer
Hello there Tim. Hope everyone is doing great. Tell Jill I said hello please. One day I will get to meet ya,ll.... until then I'm stuck in ol West Virginia 👍🙏
Higher octane fuel is actually less vulutable... In a non boosted application where the manufacturer only requires 93 octane you are probably losing power
@@williamwallace9620 he is right about the wonderful smell of burning race gas though
That's a myth. High octane just means the gas is less likely to detonate. The moment the spark plug ignites it, its all irrelevant. It burns the same like 89.
What substitute can I use I cannot find non-ethanol gas where I live thanks from Gary
Are we thinking of the same Robert? If he’s who I’m thinking of, he sure does have some beautiful old International tractors!
What brand of chains do you use that would make a good video just to throw in…. I have the 362 c with a 20” bar & a 400 with a 25” bar and I have the 660 with the 28” bar
Tim that looks like turbo blue
Why 102 octane?
Do you notice a difference in power or is it just longevity?
Does the saw use less fuel?
What type of fuel was clogging up the Stihl screens?
What oil ratio?
I mix 90 and 110 race gas to get 95.
Isn't racing gas oxygenated? Doesn't that create problems with corrosion?
Have you ever run platinum tip or iridium plugs instead of standard plugs in any of your saws? Take care.
I never have.
I didn't hear how much oil you added? 50:1? 2.6oz per gallon?
50:1
Interesting
Do you mix 50:1?
Yes
What is your gas to oil ratio? 50-1, 40-1? According to Motul tech doc it states to run 33:1 to 25:1. So what do you use? Thanks.
50
At what ratio?
50
Berapa campuran oli dengan bensin yang bagus untuk mesin bos
Sure looks like add gas to him but you know whatever it is great video though
Do you mix 40:1? I’m considering trying the way you mix it with race fuel an that motul oil. I don’t much like the smell of regular gas in saws either
50:1 is what I mix
that race gas i bet that is turbo blue but could be rong it has been a minute i have been around racing
I run the husky oil, 91 octane ethanol gas and use Marine Stabil blue in every can.
Been running saws on this combo for at least 10 years.
Not a single issue.
Both husky and stihl.
Looks like vp fuel
That blue stuff looks like leaded 110 to me, like what small planes use. Got to watch breathing that stuff long term if that's what it is.
Any videos on diesel with the crud that's in it. Some think it's algae.cant be cause you need sunlight to make algae.JD sells (expensive) stuff that supposedly eats the crud?
