I have been using mogas in three different Ranger engines since 1985, no
burnt valves, no valve seat problems, no burnt pistons, no carbon,
no new sparkplugs.. No engine stoppage for any reason except at end of
flight All oil analysts indicate normal wear residue..
Some years ago at Ottumwa, or Sun & Fun. Some where in the mid west I got
a
thankful of corn gas, ethanol, I had to OH the carb
and replace some rubber fuel line sections after I got back. I have had
to
position and hold at 90 degree ramp temps. for minutes, never had a
backfire
or balk in acceleration. I use 93 US combined rating high test all the
time
except when some one is donating avgas at an air show . I will concede
10 oz. of Marvel oil is good for the head, engine and Pilot. Bob Haas.

I have the Peterson STC on my 200 Ranger and it has been running great.
About 50 hours on an overhaul. Peterson recommends using 25%/75% mixture
of
100LL to Autogas which gives about the same lead as 80 octane Avgas.
Valve
lubrication according to the papers.
