| Subject: | Re: Octane degrading with storage time |
John,
I too always add Sta-bil to my fuel and it does help. .In the past I
sometimes had run-on at engine shutdown with my 912 when I had "vintage' fuel in
my tanks. It acted like an old car with bad gas. As an experiment I added
Lucas brand octane booster to the fuel and it stopped that from happening.I
have actually done this on a few occasions and for that reason I will say
octane booster does work. Some brands contain alcohol so if you were decide to
try it be selective as to the brand.
Best option of course is to have fresh gas but if I can't fly for awhile
,I would use the booster . There is an unknown here and that is octane
booster chenicals and its effect on fiberglas tanks(in my case)
