Posted this on the Auto Fuel thread, but seems to have been ignored.
I started running some 91 octane E Free auto gas this year in my 65 Hp Continental. $2.50 compared to $5.18 for 100LL was the main reason. I found that when running on auto gas the engine does not respond as well to the throttle, stumbles and slower to accelerate. Little rougher at idle too. Other pilots running the same gas say they see no difference. Also the carb will leak fuel when on Mogas, but not on 100LL.
Do I need to change timing or adjust the carb? Different needle for the carb?
