When you run AV gas in your boat can you run it straight or should it be mixed with 91?

nos wont matter...
Will it hurt it? Technically no it shouldnt

But its about 3.00 for a bottle of the marvel mystery oil. Grab a normal shot glass and fill it up then pour it in.

If you've ever gotten the AV fuel on your hand you'll understand why the lubrication is recommended. It is VERY dry. I imagine it'll dry out rubber just as easily.

I never thought about it drying out the rubber. That gas is pretty dry. Thank you.
