Dynojet Kits

gday guys, your talking octane in your fuel, in aus, we have 98, have you guys tried that, if its knocking on throttle, its not jetting, its ignition, or **** fuel, try some octane booster at least before you go dynajet, speaking of **** fuel, go to a differant garage, and try that fuel, the other place, could be watering it down, or have **** tanks, regards.

Octane is measured differently in the US/Canada vs the rest of the world. When you hear our octane numbers add 5 or so.

For example, CA gets 87, 89, 91. Some states also get 93. Our 93 isn't any more prone to preignition than your 98, it's just labeled differently.

gday mate, im trying to figure out why the ron rating would be differant in your part of the world,as far as i was aware it is a given value wherever, ie, 100 octane avgas is a minimum standard for petrol aircraft, all over the world, otherwise you could have plains dropping out the sky, over here we have 91 unleaded = crap fuel, 95 = premium, 98 = for higher comp, motors, and some servos sell 100 = race fuel, regards

Over here they label them as(Ron+Mon)/2 instead of just Ron, hence the difference.

this is getting seriously confusing. guys, why the change, reegards.

f*ck if I know.
Same reason they sell it in gallons not liters.

Just to make it more confusing, Avgas like you're talking about is rated MON just like yours, so our 100LL avgas is the same as yours, but our 92 octane pump gas is like your 98 octane pump.

Whatever.

Might be something to that. I have an oil leak somewhere. It makes itself known on my left boot while riding. It's too high to be base gasket, but seems too low to be head gasket.

This may be a bit late, but I've got a similar leak on my bike. It's the left side engine cover gasket that's leaking. Oils the front, instep, and sole of my left boot pretty well... It also manages to coat the gear shifter lever, peg, and both stands. :roll:

I have a full Athena gasket kit on the way. I'll tackle the left engine cover and valve cover gasket first to see if it gets me oil tight. If not, I'll be doing a teardown.
