Local 76 station gets $9.99 per gallon for 100 octane.....local airport gets $3.86 for 100LL (100 octane low lead)

Why wouldn't I run the 100LL? Seems odd to me...aviation gas is much higher quality fuel but costs less?

 

av gas not taxed?
why do you need the 100 octane? just curious.

 

13.2:1 c/r
Here in ca we only have 91 octane supreme....otherwise I could probably get away with just 93

 

anyone else tried the 100LL gas from their local airport?

 

saw your sig and didnt want to make any assumptions. so many people use high octane expecting to go faster. hahaa.
