1/ are you sure? i have read that U.S. (i think in more than one place) U.S. uses the average of RON and MON =
(RON + MON) divided by two.
2/ Can someone verify the following formula for mixing.
note that we are ASSUMING the 89 octane here is MON, and this MON is same as U.S. :
335 tank capacity: 13.9 gallons
(ASSUME 13 GALLONS)
toluene octane is 114 (not sure if this is MON or mon/ron avereage).
12 gallons x 89(octane) = 1068.
1.3 gallons x 114(octane) = 148.2
1216.2 divided by 13 gallons
= 93.5 is the new octane
if the above assumptions and formula are correct,
i only have to add 1.3 gallons of toluene per tanK:
if i use a little good lubricant (lucas, marvel) with each toluene pour:
IS THIS SAFE FOR MY MOTOR & FUEL STYSEM on a regular basis?
If yes, how much of this lubricant do i have to add with each 1.3 gallon toluene pour?
.....BUT IF MY 89 OCTANE HERE IS RON, what is that the equivalant to in MON?
thanks
