Anybody use Race Gas additive

[Dave Strong]

Canada used to have more failures in a year than all of the US. GM said it was the MMT's, it is a cheap dirty way to boost octane. Thus the higher failure rate in Canada as of 99 was still being put in Canadian fuels. Not longer with GM so not sure when or if it got banned in Canada.

Wait what, four wheeler 110? Can't be worker wheeler, they need to live on cat piss and rye in the woods.

Ya know I can't leave nuttin alone. It's a little 250x with 12.5/1. I tried 100 octane and detonated bad enough I could hear it. Runs perfect on 110, and smells good too

Looks like you'll be riding in the dark

Anybody know what all is in the VP 110 octane? Does it contain MMT? Been using it with no issues as far as breaking down goes. Also is the MMT as sensitive to sunlight as they make it sound?

[Dave Strong]

110 was a fuel that VP recommended for use in 2 strokes.

They VP does have mmt booster.

110 is leaded

I remember it and all the who's at fault, remember my plugs. 91 shell, any idea how much toluene is in it or alc 94 PetroCan? I've mixed both with 20% total volume and Shell's at 96 then and it's good. That's without mmt. 110+ in a wheeler , get a thicker gasket or open the chamber.

[FMP]

Just reading, the addition of mmt in gasoline is allowed in the US . A waiver was granted to allow concentrations of 8.3mg Mn/ L, amounts which are shown not to harm cats, etc. However probably not found in any day to day gas. Major Canadian refineries voluntarily stopped using adding it in 2004 for day to day gas.

I remember the orange tinge in tailpipes when MMT was heavily used

[FMP]

It said loses potency in minutes of exposure. If I'm four wheeler riding, kinda hard to protect my jug from sunlight

In unprotected unmixed condition, couple minutes of specific light to break bonds and loose effect. Mixed in suspension with somewhat filtered conditions from the solution and the plastic fuel container, although very limited may prolong exposure time I would think.

If you get it on your fingers and it stains them yellow/orange. then its good stuff

Yes

No

Of course you have , it's composed of clean aromatic hydrocarbons and a lil lead

3.1 3.2

Yes

Ignore 14.2

I would be concerned about the specific gravity and oxygen content of the additive if mixing any volume.

Toluene is a great additive. It is not all about octane its more about resistance to detonation.
