The Stanley CH5 15 HP chipper uses ordinary (87 octane) gasoline. The motor runs well, but the single blade becomes dull rather quickly and is a bit of bear to change.

Regular unleaded. It took me a whole year to find time to assemble it and get it running but that was all done in under an hour. Stanley is a beast. It is easy start either through the electric start or the pull start. It clears brush fast and it is nicknamed the beast. It runs well and does not use a lot of gas to do the job. I am happy with this purchase. I had another brand in 6.5 horse and killed it in 4 years. This 15 horse power can eat anything that goes into it and it is fast. I highly recommend it.

I am uncertain why it says "gasoline powered" it is definitely electric and operates on standard household current (110-120V).

It's made for 'alchohol' ; I use methanol. Petrol or gasoline would probably create a lot of soot; also toxic fumes.

Oil/gas mix. I use regular gas and it works fine although I sometimes run 91 through it. I've never had issues with regular. You must mix with oil.

It's propane gas. This is the 2nd one I've owned. I loved my first one so much I gave it to my daughter and bought another exactly like it!!!

The blower takes regular (87 octane) gasoline (ethanol is OK) and 2 cycle oil. Instructions for mixing the oil/gas are included with the blower.

It uses regular motor oil. It comes with the oil you need to fill and run it.

It's plastic. Gasoline has an ignition temperature of @ 500 degrees; obviously it cannot work with real gasoline.

Due to there being regular (Non Ethanol/middle grade) gasoline at the pumps now, that is what I have and use in my generator. However, the best choice is to purchase (if you have LP or Natural Gas) a fuel adapter kit from the US Carburetion Kit Center (www.uscarb.com) so you can utilize either Gasoline and/or LP/Natural Gas. LP/Natural Gas will not gum up or damage the Carburetor like Ethanol Gas will.

It is not fuel. It is bits of colored glass that you place over a gas fire pit and the flames come up through the glass as if the were on fire, but they don't burn.

It uses the regular old Coleman green 2 lb. propane bottles you find in the outdoors department of your local mega mart and they just screw on. Crack the knurled knob and flick the igniter near the tip then adjust the flame with the knob. Make sure the bottle is screwed on completely to depress the discharge valve in the bottle. 1 bottle should get you around the average sized yard several times before running out of gas. Shut the nozzle off, unscrew the bottle and hang the wand where it won't touch anything until it's cool.

I certainly did NOT think it worked with real gas. I understood it was a working model that ran with a small electric motor.

Yes this cultivator uses a mixture of gasoline with oil. A quality brand 2-cycle oil mixed with unleaded regular gas only is recommended. The mixture ratio is 50:1.

You use just regular gas, don't forget to fill it with oil before starting. And don't overfill the oil, its worse than under filled. Use 30 wt oil, any brand!

It appears to be a standard vinyl tube, and I use it for a fountain I built. Not sure if it is suited for gasoline. I have a gasoline syphon to empty mowers, and I am sure that is designed for gasoline. Sorry.

Use regular unleaded gas but add Stabil or some additive. The 15% ethanol tears up those small engines.

Unleaded gasoline or "gas". 87, 89 or 91 octane. 10% ethanol is ok but use stabilizer if storing. Ethanol free gas is better. I recommend avoiding this pump. Its crap. Spend a little more on a better brand if you need to rely on it at all.
