greevesman Posted October 24, 2021 Report Share Posted October 24, 2021 Has anyone used Aspen fuel in Villiers engines and did you use Aspen 4 and use your own twostroke oil or the ready mixed Aspen 2 ? Was it better than pump fuel and was there a noticeable improvement ? I know its alot more expensive but is it worth it as I only use my bike a few time a year .

jon v8 Posted October 24, 2021 Report Share Posted October 24, 2021 Its a very clean fuel and won't harm any equipment its used in. I use it now mainly in my elderly Stihl chainsaws that would die quickly on E10. I also use use it in my AJS,C15 and J9 James. The best thing for me about it is that I don't get headaches from the chainsaw fumes anymore. Its brilliant stuff, only the cost puts me off ! But like you I don't use much so its not a big problem. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robido Posted October 24, 2021 Report Share Posted October 24, 2021 Been using aspen for about 5 years now mix my own 2t. Just bought 25 litres of fuel from classic fuel solutions no ethanol. Got lead in it like petrol used to be 105 octain. 3 -5 year shelf life. Yet to try it. It's cheaper than aspen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carl ekblom Posted October 27, 2021 Report Share Posted October 27, 2021 Any Alkylate petrol would be about the same. But Aspen is one of the oldest and best. They also produce high octane racing petrol (Aspen+ and Aspen R) Think Aspen is looking for distributors worldwide https://www.aspenfuels.com/contact/become-a-dealer/ As fas as I know, their main business is chain saws and garden machinery 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
