Have you tried 100LL, or racing fuel from a local speed shop? We use so
little in weed eaters and such, it might be worth the price.


I have but I'm concerned that the lead and high octane might create
deposits in the engine. What I need is not better gas but just clean
(even crappier) gas.


The local airport (7B3 Hampton NH) sells mogas bought from the
terminal in Portland ME that has no additivates whatever. I buy it
($3.90 a gallon) for the small engines (chain saw, generator,
off-season lawnmower and snow blower) that are likely to sit for
months between uses.
