[QUOTE="David Allan, post: 645318, member: 33972"] Yes the air-cooled engine is designed to run on low grade fuel (2 star petrol) not readily available now. We are now expected to use E10 petrol which can contain up to 10 percent Ethanol. Fuel lines, carburettor and fuel-pump parts may be deteriorated by the Ethanol. The fuel additive reduces such problems and restores storage capability In general there is nothing wrong with supermarket fuel. Regarding engine oil the high zinc content is desired to minimize cam/tappet wear. [/QUOTE]
