Alcohol fuel test

1 post in this topic

Hi all,  the other day, I had mixed up which was which, that is, the can of non oxigenated premium  gas for the plane, and regular car gas for the lawn mower..  I've used this test before, but this time I took pictures.  Add a drop of regular food coloring to the spice bottle, add some gas and shake it up.  The alcohol will disolve the food coloring and make it mix with the gas.  With the nox oxigenated  gas, the food coloring doesn't want to mix, and will bead up.   Here are a couple of pics I took.  Easy to see the difference.  Maybe this is old news for most, but interesting if you never knew about it.  JImChuk
