I never actually thought about that.Does it affect the oil/gas mixture if I use super?maj. tom wrote:yah that's wasting the money of higher octane fuel in a carburettor two-stroke engine since an amount of fuel ends up in the exhaust anyway. Unless your cutter has a direct injection two-stroke? Plus they are small engines with low compression ratio.
The Stihl brushcutters require at least 89-octane at 50:1 with the two-stroke oil, don't see any reason to use Premium. Super gasoline in Trinidad is already 92 RON.

I still pull back my usual 32-35mpgs and I do a mix of different new stations again when one say red lasting longer than green.daring dragoon wrote:it have no question that the current gas is burning out faster than normal an it have nothing we can do. someone mentioned to me that he has a diesel and gasoline vehicle and both is burning out faster but the diesel is still a better bet as it not burning out as fast. can anyone verify this is the case. diesel men is your diesel a better purchase than gasoline? i dont want to go a converted cng so if diesel giving me a better bang for buck i will look into going diesel.

Because to get a little technical, everybody saying is the gas, but who has the knowledge about what exactly about the gas that is causing it to burn faster? What component of the gas has changed that is causing it to burn faster? I would like to know the answer, just for knowledge purposes. Because if there is no proof then you can't blame the gas.

i remember when you go to full gas a year ago when you open the gas cover you would hear a sound as if you open a soft drink and smell gas. now i hear nothing and dont even smell the gas.

Do not buy gas at Orange Valley gas station on the fishing depot road.Dem effers manipulating the pumps somehow and overcharging.Also their fuel has water in it and it effed up my car the same day that they overcharged me.
I find it hard to believe that it cost me $260 to fill a tank in Orange Valley from E and the same amount of fuel costs $195 in Charlieville.
Literally nobody buys at the depot.Buy straight off the boats when they come in.Best pricesdaring dragoon wrote:timelapse wrote:Who vex vex...

OPEC producers' unexpected 1.15 million barrel per day production cut could lift global oil prices by $10 per barrel, the head of investment firm Pickering Energy Partners said on Sunday.
The output reduction "will firm prices meaningfully," said Dan Pickering, co-founder of the Houston-based firm.
"We will probably get a $10 (per barrel) move in crude," Pickering said in an interview.
Saudi Arabia and other producers disclosed voluntary cuts ahead of Monday's OPEC ministerial monitoring meeting that was expected to endorse existing production levels. The OPEC group said the move was aimed at supporting market stability.
