Re: Xylene
I am not sure where you are buying Xylene, but I can get it at a Sherwin Williams for about 5$ a gallon

Re: Xylene
why not just run race gas... it's cheaper and makes more power? how much does 110 cam2 or sunoco race fuel which is the same identical stuff cost where you live? can you get turbo blue or any other 110? if you can get by on 100 octane might want to try low lead avgas. if you look around you can probably find an airport that's closed at night with a gas pump that is credit card operated. just take a couple of jugs and get that. depending on the location it's more expensive in some places. there's no road tax on avgas so they won't want you to put it in your car if they're open. i got an airport that has the pump right next to the driveway and the hose is long so you can just put it in at night. around here all of these are cheaper than xylene or tulene. sometimes you can find it at paint stores for discount if the cans are dented.

Re: Xylene
5 gallons plus some Marvel Mystery oil worked wonders for my truck- though a tad bit pricey. Got rid of the damn pinging. Changed the plugs, rotor, cap, wires, fuel filter and I still ping on 91. *GRRRRRRR* Stupid @#%#@ California

Re: Xylene
Another California resident here. After trying Xylene I’ve had the best luck AFA ping/KR is concerned with 100 no-lead race gas. Much easier to get into the tank, right out of the pump at Infenion. Expensive, but not when you consider xylene, like you said. Only thing Cal 91 is good for is that there’s less knock then regular, I think...:lol:
Marvel Mystery Oil sounds like an interesting trick. Haven’t tried that one.

Re: Xylene
Don't you have to mix in some Marvel Mystery oil or something to prevent seals from drying up or something like that?

Re: Xylene
Yep that's what I've been told and I've run a few gallons
in my GN. No one sales race gas in the po dunk area I live (except 50 gallons). Make sure the exhaust exits away from the cladding. It has caused some rear GN bumpers to disfigure due to the harsh fumes.
I'm hoping someone in GA will sell E85 soon.
