Nooooo!! Not again. Do a search for 'fuel' there have been alot of threads discussing this very topic. Good luck getting a conclusive answer.

jeepers man, dont worry about it. it'll run on lawnmower premix & decanted degreasing kero if it has to.

from memory they need min 91 ron (any of our fuels). they dont worry about lead additivs or other valve seat savers in europe...
