he tractor would probably have an uncontrollable urge to take off down the runway as fast as it can.(quoted from post at 07:26:42 06/13/21) local airport close they have a card troll with 101 octane will I have any problems burning that on tractor rides?
(quoted from post at 09:28:12 06/13/21) Credit card access at the pump. Sometimes requiring an authorization ID card as well. Jim
(quoted from post at 10:07:29 06/13/21) We're only talking 20 gallons and $.70 a gallon higher.
(quoted from post at 14:49:30 06/13/21) I won't question any of what you've said, but will add that putting low lead fuel in a vehicle that requires unleaded fuel is illegal.
here's no need to yell. We can read you just fine.(quoted from post at 17:42:56 06/13/21) LOTS OF BAD INFO, EXAGERATION, MISUNDERSTANDING HERE, OF AIRCRAFT ENGINES/100LL...IT IS 100 OCTANE...BURS IN YORELOW COMPRESSION TRACTOR SAME, STARTS SAME, NO PROBS...IT WILL LEAVE SMALL LEAD BALLS @ BASE OF PLUG INSULATOR...U DIG IT OUT, W/PIK, EVERY 50 HRS...HOW LONGS IT TAKE US TO LOG 50 HRS??

Good point buick. Most small aircraft engines like in a cessna 150/172 are certified now to use regular mogas but it took a while before some airports had a tank and pump for it. As I recall some used it and some stayed with the 100 lowlead. I don't think they are certified for ethanol though. I'm guessing they modified the engines compression ratio or something. Last time I did a biennial it seems like there was a little pinging with the instructor's rented 172.
(quoted from post at 15:18:25 06/13/21) Deposits from the lead additive were quite visible on spark plugs at the 25 hour cleaning interval. (going back to flight school days)
here's no way to make that statement since all pump gas for cars is R+M/2 and avgas is not measured that way.(quoted from post at 19:10:47 06/13/21)
100LL is 96 pump octane .

You are missing the point .
While the tractor engine does not need the octane . HOWEVER the show tractors and seasonal equipment fuel systems require a fuel that does not gum , varnish , attract water or attack rubber/plastic/aluminum .

If that is the end goal, save your money and run mogas or any other non ethanol gas.
