Again… the point? it’s acid…. Used as a catalyst anyone tells you Avgas and Mogas are chalk and cheese… ignore them if your engine needs lead run 100LL avgas if not…. 98 ULP won’t hurt…. Provided the compression and timing allows it if an engine manufacturer says it can be used….. use it full stop now about those Gen4’s and feedback positive or negative
-
Whatever… seeing as AVgas and Mogas are virtually the same thing… just slightly different components to get the different octane numbers … both change depending on where they’re used … be it in a cold climate or warm… be it summer or winter…. Even altitude So the argument between one or the other is just silly…. One is 100 octane and contains Lead the other is a lower octane and doesn’t…. Seeing as most aero engines are low compression…. The engine doesn’t care…. Just as long as it doesn’t need the lead for lubrication The Avgas I helped make was full of Alkylate made from C3’s and C4’s after passing through Hydrofloric acid ask you chemist mate what that would do to aero engines if it wasn’t neutralised correctly…. I actually think BP knows…. Rather large compo bill I think…. Though happy to stand corrected

Ooh!!!….. now I’m doing it!!!!

Aaaaaand…. ULP98 does drop octane if left open as the lighter components such as C4’s flash off… it may be marginal but true non the less good 98 can have a positive cleaning effect too… helping to remove some of those leaded deposits

Again… what do these conversations… as mind tingling as they are…. Have to do with a Jabiru Gen 4? you can start a new thread if you have a new idea…. Or have I just embarrassed myself again 😳
-
They tried that with cars…. No one bought them…
-
Anyone able to recommend a LAME near Lethbridge Victoria … or a mobile one willing to travel? cheers
-
I know there’s news of an EFI system from Jabiru themselves … but can’t find anything on a Gen 5
-
Crazy I know but….. what does any of this have to do with anyone using a Jabiru Gen 4 ?
-
No news is good news then at least that’s how I’m calling it 😂
-
Very true about the overthinking!!!! and thanks… I’m definitely heading in the Gen4 direction now 👍👍

Anyone updated to a Jabiru Gen 4? Are there any actual experience with cooling issues, good or bad, now the barrels and heads have increased surface area? Trying to decide between LCH with Rotec and a new Gen 4
