What is the best gas for ATV?
For most four-stroke ATVs, you can use regular gasoline, grade 87 or above, from your local gas station. If you don’t know the recommendation for your ATV, opt for 89 grade unless the 87 grade is ethanol free. For oil, simply use 10w40 and change it a couple times a year.
Premium gas 90-93 is completely okay to put in a standard vehicle. Car experts say there is no risk of damage to a standard car using premium fuel.
Does running premium gas make a difference?
So is Higher Octane Fuel More Efficient? In a word, no. On its own paying for premium gasoline does not make your car run better or get greater gas mileage. Giving your car the fuel it requires to run smoothly and efficiently, without damage to the engine, does make a difference in your fuel mileage.
Do you get more horsepower with premium gas?
Non high performance engines do not gain horsepower from the use of premium gasoline. Premium gasoline cleans the fuel system to a degree but does not add horsepower.
If your car doesn’t require premium, fill up with regular. In a consumer notice, the Federal Trade Commission, notes: “In most cases, using a higher-octane gasoline than your owner’s manual recommends offers absolutely no benefit. It won’t make your car perform better, go faster, get better mileage or run cleaner.”
Should I use non ethanol gas in my ATV?
The two can be mixed together with no problem. Your atv doesn’t care, and won’t run any different at all with ethanol or without. Neither one will do any damage to your engine.
What are the benefits of premium gas?
The octane rating on a modern gas pump is actually a representation of its resistance to knock. In fact, one of the main benefits of premium gas is that it avoids detonation better than regular gas. The higher the octane — usually expressed as a range from 87 to 94 — the stronger the resistance.
