Just installed a Silber turbo on my G4 850. Was told to mix 110 with my 91 so,
This is a two part question

1. Can you run leaded fuel in a skidoo 850? Which I believe is fine, being 2 stroke? If so..
2. Opinions on mixing 110 leaded with 91 unleaded?

I running a silber turbo on my 850. I am running 50/50 av gas and 91 unleaded. Av gas is leaded and works fine. It can build up on plugs and o2 sensors but I think that more when you running strait av gas. I have also ran 110 and 91 when I couldn't get av gas. If I are wondering if they mix. The answer is yes and no worries.

Thank you

Why the AV gas over the 110, if you don't mind me asking?

I just run it because the airport is 2 miles from me and it's normally cheaper.

Oh, ok.

I have the opposite going on. I can get 110 2 blocks from my house and the airport is about 10 miles away.

You will not have any problems, I run either 110 leaded race gas or AV 100 and no-lead 91 octane in my Boondocker 850 turbo without any issues. Generally mix about 30% race/AV fuel to a tank of 91 no-lead.
