Vp 110 race fuel

[bakers4v4_6]

Just curious a guy at work switched over to ethanol and has about 35 gallons left of vp 110 in his drum he offered to sell it to me for $120 I figured that was a good deal I don't run it straight I just like to blend a gal or so into my tank. But wasn't sure if there was a shelf life or anything on something like this?
Or anything else I should be aware of ?
Thanks

Really good deal. Works out to $3.42 a gallon. Cant buy 93 for that

 

[stangbanger856]

Wow sucks you don't I've closer. I would hit you up for some gas. That's an.awesome deal

 

[1QUICK10TH]

Here's a better question, what benefits do you think you're getting by adding 2 gallons of 110 to a tank of 93

 

[stangbanger856]

10 gallons of 93 + 2 gallons of 103 = 95.8 octane.

5 gallons of 93 + 2 gallons of 103= 97.8 octane.

If it was me it would be 5 gallons of 110 at all times. Hahaha

Two bad he didn't have ten drums at that price. You could have gone into business.

That should keep you in higher octane street gas for at least a year.

 

[1QUICK10TH]

10 gallons of 93 + 2 gallons of 103 = 95.8 octane.

5 gallons of 93 + 2 gallons of 103= 97.8 octane.

If it was me it would be 5 gallons of 110 at all times. Hahaha

How did you figure these numbers? What equation?

 

[bakers4v4_6]

My tank is never full so a gal or so of 110 into my tank of 93 absolutely makes a difference in the octane boost so I guess unless your unsure of the benfit of octane boost? then I'm unsure of your question?
And yes my car was tuned with a 93/110 mixture

And yea I have a few ppl interested in picking some up so it prolly won't last long I will prolly only keep enough to last a summer which the limited amount I drive my car will prolly only be 5 gallons.

10 gallons of 93 + 2 gallons of 103 = 95.8 octane.

5 gallons of 93 + 2 gallons of 103= 97.8 octane.

Care to explain how you got those numbers. Something like an equation or something like that should get you off the hook....

And yeah while you are at, could you explain the stoichmetric values of the mixtures, and also while you are at it please explain....

So much fail in this thread

 

[static74]

Probably one of those people who like it for the smell and thinks it adds power :shrug:

What kind of tuner will tune a forced induction car on mixing gas? Too many variables.

 

[1QUICK10TH]

Exactly, I've never heard of any good tuners tuning on a mix..... It's senseless

 

[rxpwhistler1]

Who cares if he wants to buy it for the smell, taste, color, etc? His question was whether or not it was a good bargain.
If his car was tuned with a precise mixture of 93 and 110, it certainly can't hurt to add it, and likely to help.
At that price, I'd buy it just bc It's a great deal. It does smell good too, don't act like it doesn't! Haha, I'm kidding of course..

Yes.
That is a good deal.

^^^^^ Can somebody please

Who cares? I do. Its people like you that come here and post wrong information about shit you dont know that ends up costing a lot of money for those that are dumb enough not to do research before trying something.


Now, tell us how do you tune a car with a mixture 93 and VP110 with a precise mixture of 10:2 gallons respectively.

duh, everytime he is out of fuel, he drains his tank and gets out ye trusty old measuring buckets and octane tester :lol:

Buy it and run it, fck these guys.

 

[bakers4v4_6]

Damn fellas relax I guess if someone says that it is damaging to my car? then that's what I would like to know But to say its a waste and not explain in any form isn't really helpful.
But yes I explained to my tuner lidio from alternative if it would hurt to add a gallon or so to every 5 or so gallons and he said no If others disagree please explain
Thanks

First off, if you mix the fuel, your tune will be off. The stoich being different will throw off your A/F.

Second, the fuel is leaded. This kills O2 sensors.

Third. Unless you had your car tuned for the "Exact" blend, the tune will never be correct or the same.

It's your money, do what you want. You asked for advice.

I would save my $$$
