Like Doug said, all gas is unleaded and has been for years, since the mid 70's I'm pretty sure

2 stroke mowers are better then the 4 stroke, and You can use them at all kinds of angles where a 4 stroke you can't.

I should have clarified that I meant straight unleaded versus 2 stroke, not unleaded versus leaded gas  You can still get leaded gas in most of the developing world. You can actually get insane MPG or power out of a leaded engine as they will take massive compression.... its just the you know.... um lead exhaust thats a problem

Did I ever tell you about the time Brasky went hunting? Well anyway, Brasky decides he's gonna hunt down all four members of the Banana Splits. He stalks and kills every one of them with a machete. They all beg for their lives, except Fleagul.

Lead was a lubricate in gas, and years ago it all had lead,you can still get very high octane but not lead in the US

That may be a bit of overkill for a tiller  I had an old boss that looked at converting his blown 360 in his roadrunner to etoh but decided it would be too much of a PITA to drain the alcohol out every week. leaving the alcohol in is very bad mojo.
I've seen some people experimenting with drag diesels due to the compression and boost they are capable of taking without detonation. I think there was also concern that diesel was the fuel of the future when gasoline became obsolete.

Gas as we know it will always be here if for nothing else then racing. But gas is not going away anytime soon

Good evening all!
This weekend is my working weekend. As an added bonus, while everyone else gets to come in at 7:30, I get to go in at 6 for a photo shoot. I'll try and post the pics when they are made available to me. |
