Okay...certainly this has been beat to death on this forum. But I'm curious how many here actually burn 93 Octane pump gas in their RV's?
After reading more about the auto fuel here in North Texas, we have "reformulated fuel" year round. This has the benefit of cleaner burning, with a much lower RVP (7.8, close to 100LL of max 7.0) number making flying at altitude a non-issue.
We might just purchase one of the 58 gallon tanks, with a self contained fuel pump and carry it in the rear of my Explorer.
The fuel lines in use are alcohol resistant, and chemical resistant. So burning the E10 fuel is not a problem, and the auto engines we are using were designed to run on this.
The benefits of burning 93 Octane pump gas:
1. $2.80/gallon vs. $5.00/gallon for 100LL.
2. No lead, so your engine burns much cleaner.
3. Longer spark plug life.
4. Longer engine oil life.
5. No ugly exhaust smudge down the side of your cowling.
We found a good means of transporting fuel here:
