Ever Heard Of This Stuff Aspen Fuel?

- Taryl was informed about Aspen alkylate fuels so we decided to look more into it and found the results speak for themselves regarding engineered fuel. This stuff burns cleaner and is better for your equipment and it minimizes the user’s exposure to harmful exhaust emissions. Since the oil is biodegradable, it's better for the environment as well. There's only 2 alkylate fuels available on the US market currently with the other being Stihl brand (also used in this video). The difference? Besides being biodegradable and burning cleaner the price tag is also a lot cheaper than the Stihl brand. Just passing along another quality product for storing your equipment long-term or if you want to burn better fuel in your equipment.

1 in the whole state of MT. Bummer.
is this cheaper or more expensive then the other premix?
Aspen burns clean but (out of experience) it’s bad sitting around in yur carbetrator plus I don’t know but it seems to be inferior in lubrication. The best fuel will in fact always be a compromise. I like lubrication and a working carbutrator so I stopped using Aspen.
Your getting pretty close to 200k. You should do a giveaway to celebrate 🎉 when you hit it!
@@allieflounder5764 it's up to tayrl but I hope he does a engine rebuild
Damn.. My Oscar Wilson salesman was at the shop today trying to get me to buy some Aspen. No one else has it in the area. He told me to check out your video and I gotta say... I'm impressed!
In Germany there is regulation that all handheld 2-stroke driven devices have to use clean burning fuel ("Sonderkraftstoff"), e.g. alkylate fuel, in professional environment. The statutory accident insurance (or however you might translate "Unfallskasse") checks if employers respect this. The reason is to protect employee health. It's great for the engines / maintenance too.
Aspen is by far the most popular brand and available basically everywhere. There's ways to order similar fuel cheaper in bulk which many employers make use of.
You can still use whatever for private use of course.
Wow sounds more communist there than even California here in the US
@@QuietMikeW Yeah it's so communist to want clean air and water. I'd invite you to go back in time to southern California in the early 1970s and compare that to today. Are you old enough to remember choking on "ethyl" exhaust fumes in traffic at stop lights. I am. If not for that communist Nixon signing the clean air and water acts and starting the EPA, we'd still be pumping thousands of tons of tasty, healthy tetraethyl lead into the air every year for us all to breathe and to settle on our land and waters. Ah, the good old days. The fish were so much easier to catch floating on top of the water. All you needed to go fishing was a dip net.
Did you know that a typical backpack leaf blower emits more pollution in an hour of use than a modern full size pickup truck does on a complete cross country trip?
wow thats nuts lol, I don't think the fumes from regular gas in a 2-stroke are gonna kill me though
@@M.TTT. No, of course not. But if millions of folks are running them, it may kill ALL of our great grandchildren. There are no absolutes and I live in the real world. Rarely does such a huge percentage of the scientific community agree on a topic as they do with climate change. I'm no saint. I've run 2 stroke Lawnboy mowers since I was a kid. I have gone rechargeable on everything but the mower, but that's coming soon.
I ask myself, "What if EVERYBODY did what I do?"
If 99.7% of doctors told you that a growth on your arm was a dangerous form of cancer and needed to be removed ASAP, but your favorite TV show host told you not to worry about it, who would you listen to?
@@mikemorgan5015 you're great grandchildren have way more to worry about than a little 2 stroke these days. They'll be lucky if they're not straight-up slaves to the govt.
Aspen, cleanlife and motomix are all alkylated fuels. They burn really clean. We used this stuff in our equipment for years and the carbs stay clean as a whistle. No deteriorated rubbers or plastic. Great stuff!
Great fuel for winterizing
IF you can find it or get it.
I think all the metal cans look more or less the same and are probably from the same supplier (VP fuel??). The Motomix and Aspen are probably the same. If the foam dissolves it must indeed contains aromatics(explaining the soot). Therefore VP fuel may be purified gasoline without ethanol. Chicanic made a video about some Stihl equipment having trouble to run properly on TruFuel which is also sold in the same metal can. It surprises me that the Husqvarna is probably is also "VP fuel" as I know from the past that they used Husqvarna branded Aspen in Europe. I think "Taryll's synthetic dinosaur juice" would be a nice own brand😆
in Vienna the capitol of Austria all city garden and park workers have to use Aspen fuel for workers health reasons.
Very common in Scandinavia , I'd say that 95% of all our customers use pre-mixed engineered fuel.
Taryl is correct only two alkylate fuels are available in the USA. Even though we received Gulf Pro Fuel from the USA where it is refined and packaged IT IS NOT FOR SALE IN THE USA YET due to licensing issues over the name. Eliminator Performance will still do the burn test to compare
I noticed that as you were testing them, the Stihl and the Aspen not only burned cleaner, but also burned longer for the same amount of fuel. It's nice how clean they do burn and yes, that will be better for the engines.
The flame also seemed to be much taller compared to the others.
Yes! it was a great test I never knew, now I don't have to save the styrofoam peanuts
Been using the stihl premixed in my trimmer for about 6 years and no issues. I dont even drain the fuel over winter and it starts right back up
@@eosjoe565 Makes sense, as they're made from parafins, not benzene. Its also one of the reason why they burn to good, less smell in the smoke and it doesn't harden rubber.
Thanks Taryl and Slippers for the demonstration on how different brands of 2 and 4 cycle fuel burn it was interesting.
It’s crazy how they are all different colors lol I was surprised how clean the aspen burnt definitely be better for a engine thanks for sharing
Yea I love to use it when storying tools for the winter or longer times. Run it dry of gas station fuel, fill it up with this, run it then store it. 6 months, a year or two later stats on the first pulls and the gas smells just like the day it was bought. No benzene or ethanol, so no rubber issues either. I also like it in top handle chainsaws, less smelly fumes in my nose.
Just tried the Aspen fuel and man does it work amazingly. No smoke at all. Would definitely recommend. This stuff is amazing. Been running 2 cycle for 27 years and this is by far the best I've ever used. A++++
Been loving this Aspen fuel. Got both the 2 and 4. Spilled a little the other day on my hand and 20 seconds later no smell at all. In the past if I spilled pump gas on myself or my clothing I would smell it for hours if not all day. Plus there is little to no smell when burning it.
I think i love you guys. Intelligent, intuitive, bursting with ingenuity, absolutely brilliant! And i dont use that term loosely. And you’re delving into organic chemistry! Aromatics and alkali chemicals, astounding.
I was taught that octane refers to how clean the burn is under compression. So an 87 will leave behind more unburned deposits than 93. Which i’ve heard a gearhead motorcylce mechanic put up a good argument- that in high compression engines that are 11:1 or higher, you will get more performance from a lower octane fuel. Because on the next intake stroke some fuel deposits are still in the combustion chamber.
Was also taught that octane is not a reference or equivalent to the amount of “power” an engine puts out. It only refers to how “clean” the burn is. Which you’ve proven, really isn’t that clean no matter what octane it is. The only element missing in your experiment is compression. Which i have no idea how you could do that. You’d have to run identical engines for long periods and then dismantle them to see the amount of carbon left behind i suppose. Or just pull and check the spark plugs. That would probably work. But i dont think that experiment would really matter. What you guys did was enough prof for me.
Good show ‘ole chaps! Mahalo bruddahs! 🤙🏼
octane rating is simply the resistance to detonation.
Hey Taryl very interesting tests you conducted. This is the OLD MAN at Eliminator Performance saying: are you sure that Gulf Pro Fuels new alkylate fuel is not available in the USA? I think the company was founded in the UK but we recently received a case of 2 and 4 stroke engineered fuel from them and i believe it came from the USA. Additionally we were getting the Aspen fuels from our B&S distributor until then had problems with delivery of the product. Have never had an issue with the Aspen brand and the Gulf Pro Fuel has also worked excellent. We will be trying the burn test on the Gulf Pro Fuel to see how it compares to the Aspen. Once again very insightful video buddy!
Im so proud of you Dr. Scientist Taryl. Testing all the snake oil and broken garbage products money gets wasted on. Thank you Stens and all others that support you. And thanks for all the DINNER boys. All of you. lol I found it funny they are all different colors
Problem is, the test is completely invalid. None of it is burning at the right air fuel mixture. This needs to be done by burning it in a gasoline engine and examining the exhaust with a sniffer.
Aspen is a Swedish manufacturer - very popular here in the Scandinavian countries. Makes chainsaws and trimmers run forever.
An open burn is a little different than an atomized compressed burn? With the 2 cycle fuels I'd be concerned if I was sacrificing longevity for soot. I have zero experience with the Stihl canned fuel, but for someone running their oil, after it cloggs up the exhaust, (or any 2 stroke oil that cloggs up the exhaust), running Red Armor will clean it.
I love your channel, and have learned so much and got so much entertainment as a bonus, but I am just not sure if this one is here or there. From your earlier stabilizer test, I have switched to all ethanol free Sunoco, Red Armour in the 2 cycles, in all my equipment, without stabilizer. Been having great luck, thank you.
So get the Aspen 4 and add the oil of your choice.
@@ralphfraumeni6190 So do a burn test on it
Here in Germany we had only Aspen and Motomix or the Husky Stuff. Last week i saw new Brands like Oecotec or Hercutec .
Since the first day my Husky 545 runs on aspen and its Piston is very clean. Never had any issues! Very stabil and your fingers dont smell for Fuel after washing. Excellent Fuel for Storage on Blowers or or snowthrowers with the 4 stroke aspen in blue.
i have a 545 husky snd a 088 Stihl. Will use Aspen vodka based.
here's an interesting tidbit, fisherman in the caribbean dissolve styrofoam that has washed ashore in boat fuel until it has a slimy consistency, and use it as a cheap alternative for epoxy resin to repair their boats. apparently it holds up quite well, even in harsh sea water conditions.
During WW2 Germany made synthetic oil which also became Butyl rubber for tires and boots and such.
Now you need to get a hold of project farm and see how well they lubricate. Clean burning is great, but it's got to keep the moving parts lubricated too!
You have a good point, if stihl is putting their name on it, they probably already checked that out.
Aspen 2 contains two percent fully synthetic engine oil.
Thanks for the introduction to Alkylate fuels. This was all new information to me! I believe you have about 10 engines that are now involved in a test of gas stabilizer products. It would be neat to clean the heads of these engines when you have completed stabilizer test, then run some of these fuels through them followed by a tear down to see how the heads look after consuming these fuels. Also a look at the condition of the engine oil would be interesting.
Thanks for sharing this information about Aspen alkylate fuels. I've just contacted the company about buying some for my CR250 and my son's YZ125. Found a place 20 minutes away from me that sells it. Thanks again.
Amazing that the Aspen fuel mix was about as clean as the Aspen 4 cycle. Kind of an eye opener to me.
I just watched this I somehow missed it. This brought up some questions so I rewatched your fuel additive experiments many things came flooding into my brain from my years as an auto mechanic and experiences. 1) Fuel from gas stations contains a lot of additives including detergents 2) all fuels with the exception of the Sthil moto mix and the aspen produce a lot of soot and it appears varnish as well in some cases. 3) gasoline loses octane as it sits causing it to be even dirtier. 4) Fuel evaporates while it sits leaving more of the additives behind. 5) in temperature fluctuations condensation forms in tanks and cans adding water to the mix 6) Gas from gas stations could be bad due to bad tanks, water or rust getting in from rain or repairs, and so on. 7) cleaners and additives can strip coatings from parts, many car companies tell you not to use additives in newer cars because of this, especially the newer direct injection engines.
With all of that said I can see why the results were what they were, and why VP did well while the other did worse. I am going to pull some experiments of my own, I read once that you can separate water from gas through Chamois because the chamois absorbs water and lets the gas through. Obviously, it will catch rust and other junk in fuel, but I wonder if it will also absorb ethanol and other additives. If that works it will lead to my next experiment which will be running fuel filtered this way to see if the fuel burns cleaner and more efficiently. Regardless I am going to use my 5-gallon cans just for emergencies (running the generator or big snow storms for the snow blower) and a 1-gallon can for the mower filling that only on an as-needed basis. For my two-cycle items, I will use gas and oil mix (I only use synthetic 2-cycle oil) because I use my leafblower all year but for things like my chainsaw, and weedeater I will empty and store them with aspen in the tanks.
This is where I have a question All my tanks are plastic except the generator so rust in tanks is not an issue in most things. But for the four cycles should I drain them in the off-season completely (all the bowls have drains) and leave them empty and spray the inside of the bowl with WD-40 or would it be better to have just enough Aspen in them to fill the bowls.
Biggest problem with the Aspen though is it's impossible to find in the big box stores, which puts it out of reach of lots of people. (In the USA, at least)
Here in sweden you can buy 5 liter and 10 liter cans. And at my local gas station you also have Aspen 2 stroke and 4 stroke fuel in a gas pump
Go to either a Toro dealer. They should have it. That’s where I get mine at my local toro dealer
@@2strokepower803 What is the price of this gas from a pump? In Canada I'm paying about $45 for a 5 litre jug.
That's a good question. Haven't bought aspen in quite a while.
But maby around 200 Swedish crowns to buy a 5 liter jug in a store. And maby about 40 Swedish crowns per liter in the pump
I really enjoy the fuel experiment videos! Thanks fellas!
If those were biodegradable "packing peanuts" they are likely to not react and dissolve the way that polystyrene "packing peanuts" would. A lot of "packing peanuts" are made from wheat and cornstarch now, best way to tell is that polystyrene wont dissolve in water but biodegradable "packing peanuts" will.
Thank you. Very interesting results. Thanks again
I use that Stihl fuel in my BG86. Yeah, it is expensive. I never really thought about how it doesn't smell like an old two-stroke dirt bike, but now that you mention it, it doesn't smell much at all when running.
I priced the Stihl about 3 years ago at a dealer and it was off the charts. Good information here!
Great information not available anywhere else, to my knowledge. Much respect and thanks.
Great test Taryl!! The Mason jars looked like different Cool Aid flavors 😎 . Great info as always
Daryl you’re my hero! You did a very logical and fair test. You’re an excellent mechanic with humor thrown in. Thanks
You sure sold me Taryl, very helpful and informative.!!
Aspen 2 is recommended by Stihl so it wouldnt surprise me if the Stihl fuel is the same as Aspen but Stihl puts their name on it and jacks up the price. I go thru about three 4 litre jugs of Aspen per week at my work running power saws and we been using it for a year and a half since switching from 50:1 gasoline oil mix.
I think Stihl make their own with their own HP ultra oil in it and I have a feeling the Alkalyte fuel is from the fuel company NESTE. ASPEN was associated with Husqvarna at one point especially in the UK and suspiciously Husqvarna have started their own brand Alkalyte fuels in very similar containers to the ASPEN fuel.
Man I love your videos I work at a lawnmower shop and I won't lie I've watched your videos for advice keep on man love it
I like how Slippers runs for the hills every time Tarly whips out the lighter. Lol,
Excellent video as usual. Would it be possible to do a similar video testing different 2 stroke oils mixed in regular gas? It would be quite an interesting test.
Thanks for all your hard work with these videos, you teach a lot!
Missed a golden opportunity for an outro to hand one of the cleaner plates back to Jr to finish his lunch on. 😄
My friends in the UK have been using Aspen Fuels for years.
I Almost switched out of this before the “peanut test”. Interesting. Happy I stuck with you!
Loved the explosion picture with "just kidding." Laughed out loud!
That was interesting and a really good experiment of fuel products available for us consumers to use in our small engine equipment…👍👍
I tried the Stihl fuel.. I went back to Regular gas... The stihl fuel made my eyes burn when it ran in my weed wacker. Also it went through a tank of fuel way faster and the exhaust smell of it was horrible
Its the Stihl oil, not the fuel. Buy aspen 4 stroke fuel and add your own oil, that's how I do it.
I'm not picky on my fuel or oil. I use regular 87 pump fuel with lucas 2 stroke oil.
Usually replacement claims it works better and eliminates al the problems. Claims is all they make not proven test results or real world testing.
The oil protects the engine. All of my two stroke cycle engines run on Stihl, I like it the best, and have been using it for more than four years. No bad smell associated with it.
@@CompetentSalesUSA My new equipment I bought last season needs no fuel or oil. No spark plugs, no air filter , no fumes, no pull cords , and no hearing protection. Beat that with your dinosaur ICE 8 track tape Stihl equipment.
This is invaluable info! Thank you!
Didn’t know it was a hot topic until I saw you do it as always I enjoy watching yous do your thing
Amazing, repaired an outboard motor that had thousands of hrs running at idle speed in trolling for Salmon.The exhaust tube
outlet 1 -1/4" was carboned up so badly that outlet was only the size of a nickle.Aspen would surely have prevented that!!
Very interesting. I have been using VP for several years. If I can find where Aspen is sold I will switch. Thanks for the info.
Very good educational and entertaining video, cheers !
I love tests like these! Well done!
I always use Aspen . Cost a lot in Denmark , but the good side is ,you never have to repair any carburetor ,Even old Aspen fuel will not harm . it is just the best
Been using the Stihl fuel, but I'll look for the Aspen. Thanks Taryl and Slippers.
At first I thought it wasn't very scientific as fuel on a plate is nothing like fuel in a combustion chamber, but it still showed the difference between fuels quite well and in a fashion that was easy to do and see. Well done.
Just got some today. I was curious from your earlier video and got some. Waiting to try when I warms up in S. Indiana.
good job! never thought about testing fuel like that.
Sounds nice, but come on...not even sold on Amazon?! Until Amazon or big box R us has it, it might as well not exist. You could do the same flame test with E85 or pure ethanol/methanol, it would burn even cleaner, but that doesn't mean it's good for the engine.
Interesting video. Neat to see what is left after the fuel/oil is burned off. This is the second time I have seen Aspen fuel. The fellow over at the Individualized Repair UA-cam Channel was discussing Aspen fuels when machines were in his shop for fuel related issues. I am going to look for Aspen near me - would like to see what it is like in my 2 stroke equipment.
It is in Colorado)))
The prices of these engineered fuels may be a lot more money but prices of carburettors aren't getting cheaper. In the UK I have noticed prices of carburettors go up massively and carb's off Chinese four stroke engines can be around £55 and around £80 on something like a Honda engine. Plus if you factor in the labour its actually cheaper to buy the fuel. Two stroke wise genuine carburettors can be around £45-£60 although there are cheap non genuine ones out there but these can be difficult to get tuned up correctly and don't always work properly.
I have been using the ASPEN 4 stroke fuel in my Dads old John Deere 14sx Pro mower at home and it is using a lot less gas than it was when using the unleaded pump fuel and you don't get the oily unleaded smell you get when using unleaded pump fuel and as the mower isn't used regularly every day we don't have to worry about it being left in the tank.
Hey!
We use Aspen 2 and 4 at work and I use it at home also. My discovery is the same as yours. Less soot and great use in small engines that sits for months. We got 10% ethanol in our 95 oct in Sweden.
Alkylat är bäst - håller med dig Jonas 👍
great video guys.
i've never seen premixed fuels for sale here in Australia, must be a bloody expensive way to run equipment.
Considering that the few 2 stroke engines out there are pretty small, I doubt the cost is really that bad. Cheaper than paying someone to clean your carb or buy new parts. Down time and the cost of fuel to drive to a shop to fix it... There is a bigger picture I think. I don't even own a 2 stroke any more, but in the end I think it might be cheaper if it's clean fuel.
I run the Stihl alkylate 4 cycle fuel and mix Amsoil Saber 40:1 in my Stihl BR-600 blower with a silver spark plug. Runs top notch and very clean! Just wish the refining technology catches up soon for Alkylate fuels so the price goes down
just when you think Taryl has shown us pretty much all he knows he comes up with more great stuff , poor junior now has to eat floor scraps 😂
Will those two alcohol fuels attract more moisture and mess up the carb?
Very cool and uncomplicated tests, Mr. Dactyl! Can't believe how sooty they all were. Really shocked at how dirty the plain gasoline burned. I feel a little ripped off.
Most fuels are dirty by nature, it's in the name, hydrocarbons. That carbon has to end up somewhere, and we know it as carbon deposits or carbon buildup.
I always remember what Beakman used to say, "everything goes somewhere".
You weren't "ripped off", it's just how things work lol.
Hell, if you really want to feel "ripped off", know that around 80% of the money you spent on fuel gets wasted as heat, and just 20% is used to do work in any internal combustion engine.
This is why you want your engine to be maintained, as efficiency decreases if you don't do maintenance to it, and this means wasting more than 80% of your money.
@@GoldSrc_ Beakman's World is awesome! I think I meant I felt ripped off because I expect residue from the 2-stroke fuels but not so much from unmixed gasoline. You're right about how inefficient internal combustion engines are. It's pretty disappointing if one thinks about it too long. Thanks, Gordon.
Hi Taryl, I find your videos informative and entertaining. I am thinking that those fuel additives will produce a different result if burn under pressure and right ratio of air to fuel in an engine. In today's world of snake oils one really wonder if these products are effective.
I like Aspen but no dealers in Florida. I couldn't say that test means much considering what happens in a combustion chamber is different than burning on a plate. Lol!
Nice test…I use Stihl in all my stuff it’s available at my dealer $30 for a gallon it’s worth it.
I visited a chainsaw course years ago here in Germany held by a lumberjack. And he told us, they would only use the Aspen stuff. They suffered less headaches since then when working with their chainsaws all day long in the forrest.
Did the trees fall on their heads before? ))))
Over here in Norway, there’s a bunch of different alkylate gas brands, all at about the same prices. I’ve been using them for years. About $14/gallon at the current exchange rate, but it hasn’t gone up in price like regular gas. I do have a cheapo weed whacker that’s oil thirsty, so I I need to add a little more oil to the premix for that one. The good thing is that it isn’t as nasty for varnish in the carb over time. I see some people talking about aspen for an outboard engine - that would be cost prohibitiv. If you want to run an outbord in a more expensive way - just move to Europe and pay our gas prices 😆
Most loggers I know in Norway and Sweden use Aspen fuel in their saws. I use it in my gasoline powered model airplanes, but then in the straight version that I mix with my oil of choice. The Aspen brand is very well known i scandinavia and is found in containers from 1 to 20 or 25 litres.
Here in Denmark
Aspen is available in 5 & 25 and 200 liters
Pretty cool two stroke fuel experiment 👍
Hahahahahaha comes in and fires Junior‘s Pizza on the floor and steals his plate, that was classic. Great video very very informative, sure love how I have learned a lot watching your channel thank you very much gentlemen
aspen and Stihl.......i was surprised by stihl and aspen!!! very clean
Thank you Taryl
VERY INTERESTING, Professor Taryl and Assistant Slipper…
Good solid Science! Love it! Excellent video! Of course any chance to play with fire is also a Hill Billy plus! 😉
how many of those fuels were meant to burn at atmospheric pressure or without compression
I did this same test on paper plates. Results weren't the same. 🤪
Thank you for the video
Man, I just love it when ya'll put them white coats on and do all that scientifical stuff!!!! WHo ended up washing them dishes - was it Junior? I think I'll start washing my dishes in Aspen fuel!
Could you do a control of a burn of coleman fuel or white gas style camp gas that is very refined as a comparison?
Thank you!!!
Great video! Need to get me some Aspen
Over here in Holland municipalities, landscapers etc use almost all Aspen. Expensive, but it WILL result in no carbon deposits. Smells kinda funny though.. It will not go bad, ever and can be left sitting in the engine for the entire winter.
Very cool , thanks taryl and slip dog.
Very interesting experiment. I'm just wondering what effects compression has on how the fuels burn vs just burning in atmosphere. As an HVAC tech I know there is a great difference in how combustion efficiencies differ between an atmospheric oil burner (like in a furnace/boiler) vs in an internal combustion engine. Heating oil is just diesel fuel with a few less additives so I'm wondering if there is a similar difference in these engineered fuels? Thanks for all the great content!
I thought the same thing. Look at the natural gas or lp. Burners if you mess with the air controller's.....
Great video my friend 👍
Good video Taryl
Was each can shook before pouring into plate ?
Oil can separate from gas when sitting too long.
That soot could be the oil.
Now that is cool and very interesting great work taryl
Looks promising! However, burning these fuels in this manner isn't that telling. But it is interesting. A flat pool of raw fuel will not get enough oxygen for complete combustion or even close. So, while it can seem compelling to see the difference in how they burn, I'm not sure it will yield miracle results in use, since properly maintained equipment can run trouble free for years on quality fuels that don't contain ethanol. I do have several questions.
What are the products of the combustion process with this?
Do the two stroke versions meet JASO-FD standards?
How do they hold up in long term storage once unsealed? Factory sealed?
Is it u/v resistant?
How does exposure to air/oxygen affect it?
What do they break down into when they bio degrade?
What causes the degradation?
Can the 4 stroke version be mixed with 2 cycle oil?
I know, lots of questions, right?
Hey where can I get the Aspen Non-ethanol fuel at
Great video but the rocket scientists contaminated the popsicle stick 😂
Awesome Video
You should've tested what temp they were burning at.💪😎👍
5:46...the face of Jesus in a plate. OMG...the sacred Taryl channel. LOL
Have to go with Stihl. I never heard of Aspen and it appears nobody near me has either. Even Amazon don't got it and they said they don't know when they ever will.
When I was a kid I poured some gasoline into a styrofoam cup to clean a paintbrush. It lasted about 2 seconds before it poured out on the floor.
I was expecting the packing peanuts to dissolve a lot faster. I know what you are talking about.
This Aspen Fuel is pretty common here in Germany. I used it for my Dolmar chainsaws and they run very good with it but now I switched over to MotoMix
For what reason you switched over to motomix ?
@@MrBaptiste003 just because I got it for a real good price at a dealer which is located near to me, so I dont need to drive around to get it.
To find out what's in these fuels (or any chemical product) all you have to do is look up the MSDS (Material Safety Data Sheet). It breaks down the contents, the percentages, the hazards, and precautions of the product.
It's all available on the Interweb!
That's how I found out about sodium percarbonate (Oxiclean) and isopropyl alcohol (dry gas).
