    Default Gas ?


    Will it hurt a 4 stroke boat motor to run airplane gas in it?I have a buddy that flies and own's planes and said that's what he run's in his 4-wheelers and boats said it won't go bad.I was wondering if it's not too hot and burn up a piston or something,he swears by it and said he's had no problems.

    Won't hurt anything without catalytic converters. It will get to hot on them cats and actually melt em.

    Look at the cost. You probably can't write yours off. I'm sticking with the Sea Foam.

    If you can afford airplane fuel for the boat you shouldnt be worried about the damage. Im sure you can get it fixed

    If u do its best to mix with reg. Straight AV gas runs a bit rich and hot. I used it in my dirt track cars but wouldn't run it in an injected motor/puter controlled imo

    Lets say you burn 75 gallons of fuel a year in you boat that $225 of regular fuel u bought now lets say u run airplane fuel in your boat motor and it tears something up and you have to replace the motor how much does that cost think I would keep the airplane fuel in the airplane
