ethanol and other fuel

 

Hi,
    what is the best gas for a suzuki DR125 and is ethanol available in the
GVRD?
I googled and got nothing.

That's easy!  It's the kind you buy at a gas station.  8^)

Actually I'd say start with regular and see if you get 'pinging'.  If
you do, then try the next higher grade.  I think all brands are pretty
much alike, and I usually buy whatever's cheapest (though 'cheap gas'
is kind of an oxymoron these days.)


You might try asking around at gas stations.  I don't know how they
handle ethanol up there but I suspect it's less available because you
don't have huge govt. subsidies for it there like we do here.

    It's available at all Chevron Stations, some 10-->20% is, and the rest
is buffering "techron" choices...

    Ethanol/Methanol content has limitations on some Motorcycle/Car Owners
Manuals, for no obvious reason, other than it will Clean Out your engine pretty
good, to the point of congesting your Fuel Line/Gas Filter with Carbon from your
Motor ... that can't be bad...

That's amazing! Gasoline detergents so thorough that they take carbon
deposits from the combustion chamber, which exits into the exhaust
manifold and muffler, and put them back into the gasoline! I'll say,
that's strong stuff.
