There has been reported difficulties with starting, idling and general running off colour. It is from all accounts premium unleaded with an additive to lubricate valve seats. I have taken to using BP racing 100 (I think that's the name of the fuel), available from some BP service stations as this is avgas, high octane and highly leaded.
