bansheerider803 Posted August 6, 2003 Report Posted August 6, 2003 Should I run av gas in my ported 00 shee I know were I can get some cheaper than pump gas. Quote
bansheeboy757 Posted August 6, 2003 Report Posted August 6, 2003 I said no because you will get less performance if you are running stock compression But I did read you have an aftermarket head so put some 18 domes or something and then run AV and youll be alot happier Quote
ledofthezep Posted August 6, 2003 Report Posted August 6, 2003 I wouldn't recommend it. Shit runs HOT & DRY....we run it in our stroked/highly modded VW's w/some Marvel to help cure the dry factor...I've ran it a couple times & didn't notice any gain in performance, but did notice shee ran a bit hotter. Shee's just fine right now w/91oct & 927! Quote
IrideA250R Posted August 7, 2003 Report Posted August 7, 2003 Charlie Ohton did dyno tests and not only did Av Gas perform better in a 'borderline' race gas shee, it also ran cooler! Quote
MULLET~BOY Posted August 7, 2003 Report Posted August 7, 2003 it's ok to use as i under stnad if your set up to run it i think you need to adjust a cuple things Quote
banshee370 Posted August 7, 2003 Report Posted August 7, 2003 Everyone can say what they want.... but I will stand behind Iridea250r here.... It will run cooler and cleaner than pump gas. The last time I purchased fuel was close to 2 years ago (shit, is that depressing) As soon as my shee is ready for action I will be purchasing more AV gas for it, and without hesitation! I say yes!

boonman Posted August 7, 2003 Report Posted August 7, 2003 I don't run it, I run VP, and I would NEVER run Aviation fuel. That's my $.40 worth.. Quote
IrideA250R Posted August 7, 2003 Report Posted August 7, 2003 why? do you have any scientific or personal proof against it? Most people wont even try it, or if they do they don't bother rejetting so they can say it runs too hot bla bla bla. Quote
RUNMYTA Posted August 7, 2003 Report Posted August 7, 2003 I have ran AV GAS (100LL) for 2 years in my 99 ported shee with coolhead and 17cc domes (215lbs compression). My bike does run cooler and AV GAS runs cleaner!! ******* YOU HAVE TO REJET FOR AV GAS******** AV GAS has a slightly higher oxygen content than "Race Gas" and will cause a lean condition if not rejetted. Most of the time 1 size larger main and adjusting the air screw will do it! Plus it seems like I never foul plugs with AV GAS!! MIKE Quote
