There is much talking about the side effects of alcohol containing fuel in aviation. <br>Recently, I read some information about the benefits of adding 2-stroke-engine oil to fuel to cure most problems caused by the 5% alcohol in car gas, like corrosion on metal parts, swelling or hardening rubber hoses and seals. It also should improve fuel stability during long time storage in tanks while not flying often. It also works on stuck piston rings and improve top lubrication. They recommended a mixture of 1:100. <br>I know, there are many different opinions about use of MMO in fuel and oil of our flat Lycoming engines. What could become a problem when adding 2-stroke oil?<br>Thore
