Bad Gas

Any parts you want to wash - back in my Air Force days we used to wash oil stained coveralls in 115/145 and hang them to dry on the propeller blades.

Got them really clean too, but we stopped after one of the crew got some sort of virulent crotch rot and the Medics told us that some people are allergic to avgas :-( Cheers, John B.

THe local tractor and mower shop states that we should use Premium gas in the mowers (riding and 54" ...) other tractors due to the junk and trash and OH corn stuff and whatnot in the lower two grades.

The Alcohol absorbs moisture and will pit out fuel systems in various trimmer / saw / small engines.

It greatly accelerates rubber deterioration as well.

Avoid "E" anything fuels at all costs... but sadly, you probably don't have a choice anymore.
