Have you run any of it yet? I'm curious how it runs compared to the VP and regular pump gas.
I have not.

ok 35 dollars for 5 gallons........need to tie down a date to meet up.....
I'll be home during the day tomorrow, Saturday morning, and then next Friday and Saturday.
No dealer for GTX near me. All I can get is standard Sunoco 110 leaded.

Would this be better than 100LL from the airport ?
I was planning to, but it seems like the Sunoco is blended for much higher revs. than the 100LL.Just try some 100LL...You will be surprised.

I am concerned about the 110 octane in engines that might be down a bit on compression, though. (my 5100s should be fine with it .)
How do u blend for higher rpm?
Yep that is very true, I have dealt with large radial engines for 15 years, large displacements, long stroke, rpms 3500 or less, 100LL is not racing fuel. Will it work, yep, is it as good as blended racing fuels, nope. When at RENO, VP racing fuel is used, it is racing fuel for a reason.
I don't know, but I'm making assumptions based on info. in other posts. (see below)
The Sunoco is sold at most of the tracks around here, and their site lists it as "racing fuel",
so I assume it's engineered for engines turning much more than 3500 rpm.
I'm not looking for "racing" fuel. I'm just trying to get away from the ethanol and I'm willing to pay a bit more for the peace of mind.
If the Sunoco is about the same $ as 100LL, and might be a better product for the application, then I'd rather buy that.
I don't doubt that it's fine. I was planning to switch to it myself.All I know is that for a "low rpm fuel" it runs fine in all my saws including my muffler modded 025 and my 6401 when I had it. 13k does not seem "low rpm" to me.
That doesn't get rid of the alcohol. I want to be rid of it entirely.
It turns out it wasn't the VP fuel causing the issues with my 1050. I definately has some carb issues. I took it out this afternoon with pump gas, and it's doing the same thing. I've got the carb back off the saw.
Did you ever try it in the 1130G?
No point to running the G ? Well, send it on up to VT ! LOLNo. There's really no point.
