Another fuel / mixture question

[75sparkyhd]

Has anyone used the true fuel two stroke in their harley cart? Thoughts?

[Lochlin]

I haven't. I would imagine everything would just fine with it but that would get expensive, no?

[chuckbaynham]

Regular Fuel is recommended.

What is then octane rating?

[75sparkyhd]

Its only very sparingly used so cost isnt really a concern only concern is bad fuel from sitting

What is the true two stroke fuel mixture? I use the HD recommended mixture and it has been working for many years now. Why use a different mixture?

[newtjl]

It wont hurt it. It may smoke a bit until you run it through as it is rich for your HD. If you can find ethanol free fuel in your area, it will fair just as well at a fraction of the price. If there is a marina nearby, they will have ethanol free for sure.

Hello tew45, in your opinion is a tcw3 oil the best to run in a 67 HD golf cart. I am a new owner and a very confused weather to use tcw3 outboard oil or api-tc for air cooled engines.

Like I said, I have used Walmart's supertech 2 cycle oil for many years. I am recovering from cancer and have not used my HD cart for almost 2 years. I am in remission and cannot walk very good but today I charged the battery and the cart started after about 30 seconds of cranking. The fuel was 1 1/2 ounces Walmart brand tcw3 supertech to the gal.the tcw3 supertech oil is very good and less expensive, does not smoke as much as some others I tried. I own a 1974 and a 1976 both HD's. I will enjoy my carts without fear of problems since walking is difficult. I am 83 and still working on engines!

Wow, hope you are hanging in there, TEW. We hadn't much heard much from you and I was afraid something was up. Glad to hear you things are going ok. You inspired my through a lot of my cart ups and downs that's fore sure.

Thank you very much! I hope to be around for the DH cart folks. There doesn't seem to be as many problems to solve as in the last few years. I will check for problems that i might be able to help with. Thanks again for the support.
