Pump gas, which usually contains ethanol, is designed for cars and trucks – not small engines. The larger automobile engines can usually handle the gum, varnish and ethanol. The small engines in your line trimmer and leaf blower can’t. Inferior gas and oil leave behind carbon deposits that gunk up small engines and fuel lines. Ethanol attracts water, and will even wear away the rubber and plastic parts inside the engine. It’s the kind of problem you don’t see until it’s too late.

TruFuel is different. Its high-octane formula is free of ethanol and other gummy impurities. Designed for fewer breakdowns, TruFuel is gentle on small engines by being tough on gunk.

Understanding whether or not your outdoor power equipment is at risk for ethanol damage is simple:

Do You Use Gas Station Gas?

If you answered yes, then chances are your chainsaw, string trimmer and leaf blowers are at risk for ethanol damage. That’s because the majority of pump gas contains nearly 10 percent ethanol—the same type of alcohol found in alcoholic beverages. Ethanol is fine for larger automotive engines, but can wreak havoc on the smaller engines.

Does Your Equipment Sit for Weeks Between Uses?

If so, the ethanol-laden gas could start eating away at the rubber and plastic components inside your engine. Time also allows the ethanol to attract water and separate from the oil and gas mixture. This process is known as phase separation, and it can damage or ruin your equipment.

UNDERSTANDING 2-CYCLE FUEL

Two-cycle engines found in most outdoor power equipment require a precise mix of gasoline and oil. Unlike 4-cycle engines, 2-stroke engines do not have a separate lubrication system. Instead, oil is mixed with the gasoline to a very specific ratio, ranging anywhere from 16:1 to as low as 100:1—meaning 100 parts gas to 1 part oil. The measuring process can be complicated and messy. In addition, the quality is only as good as the oil and gasoline from which it’s made.

TruFuel specializes in both 50:1 and 40:1 premixed 2-cycle fuel. That means no measuring and no mess. Made with ethanol-free gas and proprietary additive technology, TruFuel is scientifically engineered and precisely measured for optimal performance. Not only is it convenient, it also provides unmatched protection for your 2-cycle equipment.

Choosing the right fuel for small engines doesn’t have to be complicated. Do you want your equipment to start consistently and run smoothly? Then you want a high-octane fuel that stays fresher longer. You want TruFuel.
