C-10 101 0ctane fuel
Here in my area i have access to 101 octane fuel they say is C10 is this 100% unleaded ??? it is in unleaded pump because noozle will fit into my tank. I burn 93 octane but wish to mix about 3 gal with 22 gal of 93 octane which will make 94 octane i did not want to burn leaded fuel in my lightning. thanks for your replys TOM

That's what I was afraid someone was going to say.
I just bought a 55 gallon drum of race fuel. I told the guy I wanted 104. So I get the drum of fuel and notice it is labeled Tech101. I pull it up on the net and the data on it says research 104....motor 101.
Oh well, live and learn. At least it is over 100 octane.
I wonder how many guys pull up at the track fuel points and get something less than what they are thinking?
Thanks for the info,
Rocks

So which octane do you go by? Motor or research?

Does 21 degree at WOT with a 12.1 A/F sound like a good reason to want 104...LOL.
I run it at the track alot...that was why I told this ***** Wad I wanted 104. It ticks me off when some darned vender decides whats best for you without consulting with you about it.
Oh well, I'll know better next time.

From reading the link above, I come up with a slightly different answer.
It looks as though we should actually be concerned with the Anti Knock rating which is gotten to by taking the average of the research octane number and the motor octane number.
Check out the link...it explains it better.
