What's everyone paying for 110?

Avgas?


I just spent $100 on 10 gallons of trick 110 and looking for a cheaper alternative

I just got 70 gallons of av gas for 380.00 at sourdough fuel.

Av gas is not the smartest idea to run in your sled it has difforent additives that can hurt your Moter just putting that out there.

This has been, well, debated and proven to death...both ways...

That being said, I know of plenty of guys running AV (100%) in turbo 4s with success.
And I've ran AV in 2 stroke mods over the years as well. 100% and at various mixes with 91 pump...
I've read plenty on the "motor rating", "research ratings", M+R/2 and such, AV 100LL would be a little yellow 100 if it were sold at a gas station pump..at least by what I understand and read about it.

heres a read on RON, MON, PON..

that being said, there are plenty of topics about AV being hard on O2 sensors and cat. converters..

then of course, heres some propaganda from a site / company that sells race fuel...for what its worth.

but a lot of things vary from "paper" to "real world".

I was quoted $438 for 55 gallons of 110.

Seems like it's a wash really, to get 97 octane I'd spend $58 for av/prem or $61 for 110/prem

Yeah, this issue has been beat to death in the Yamaha forum, and it is also made for low rpm engines at high altitude and so on and so forth. Where is Turbo Tim at, he will tell ya how he feels about av gas.

I've been running sleds from 280 -350 horsepower for 4 years on Avgas , I wouldn't use anything else.

 

[Turbo Tim]

I've held off a little longer than normal since prices are dropping . I'll prob. put in my order for 150 gallons of Avgas in the next few days .

No idea...for some reason I thought prem was 91...my mistake

 

[Turbo Tim]

Sounds like a plan

Premium sits in the ground for a long time waiting for someone to buy it , it's probably no better than regular
