Aspen fuel and regular petrol are fully compatible and can be used interchangeably without any issues. For instance, some individuals prefer to use Aspen 4 as a storage fuel in between uses of high-consumption machinery like ride-on lawnmowers. However, if you’ve run out of Aspen fuel and need to use regular petrol temporarily, switching back and forth between the two fuels is not a problem. Nonetheless, it’s essential to remember that the longer you use regular petrol, the higher the chances of damaging your equipment.<\/p>\n

Here are some helpful tips for switching to regular petrol:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Ensure that the fuel is fresh, purchased less than a month ago.<\/p>\n

Only buy the amount of fuel you need for your current task to avoid waste and prevent the leftover fuel from becoming stale.<\/p>\n

If you’re transitioning from using Aspen 2 (pre-mixed) back to regular pump fuel, don’t forget to add 2-stroke oil to your fuel mix.<\/p>\n

As soon as possible, switch back to Aspen fuel and avoid storing machinery with regular pump petrol in the fuel tank.<\/p>\n

Did you know that switching to Aspen fuel can help clean the internal parts and exhaust port of your equipment? This cleaning effect is due to the elimination of soot build-up associated with other fuels.<\/p>\n

Here are some practical tips for switching to Aspen fuel for storage:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Before changing fuel, try to run the fuel tank as low as possible during the last use.<\/p>\n

After filling it with Aspen fuel, continue to use or run the machine for long enough to ensure the fuel has worked through the entire fuel system. This approach will prevent stale fuel issues and allow the machine to be stored away for longer periods.<\/p>\n

After the first few hours of switching to Aspen fuel, inspect your machine for any fuel leaks.<\/p>\n

Keep in mind that Aspen fuel cannot reverse any damage caused by regular petrol. So, if you’re currently using regular petrol or have done so in the past, it’s essential to keep your servicing up to date. By following these tips, you can ensure your equipment runs smoothly and efficiently.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
