Anyone test Renegade fuel ?

Why would or should a sealed 5 gal drum be any different than buying it out of a 30 or 55 gallon drum straight off the truck?[/QUOTE]

Chris - I wish I could tell you with 100% certainty why but I've never had a customers gas have a problem that came out of a sealed 5 gallon pail - some say its because air hasn't got to it .I'm told shelf life starts the moment the can is opened .

VP has a high pop-off rate (ie., unstable). I've had Sunoco laying around from one year to the next with no issues.

I think many of the 'new' names in the fuel business are offshoots from when the Torco empire crashed. I found Torco to be very similar to Sunoco. Good fuel, and stable.

Remember when testing different fuels you may need to change your jetting. Different fuels can have different sized fuel molecules, changing your mixture.

After changing the tune up, mine likes C11. I have never had a problem with fuel check. Even after sitting in plastic fuel jugs for the winter.

Michael is correct as usual . Changing to different brands of race gas , even the same octane rating , will sometimes require a jet change and always requires checking the float levels . The jet change is only required if the specific gravity ( density ) of the fuels differs by more than 2% . For instance going from .710 SG to .715 SG would require no jet change . However , going from .710 SG to .721 ( or the other way around ) would probably require a change in jetting of 1 step . The plug readings will be your guide .And any change at all in specific gravity means it would be a good idea to check the float levels in the carb (s) .
