So my recipe is 100 ave gas ( no smell, and will not sour when left over the winter) and yes it is 5.50 $$ a gallon, for break in any good quality ash less 2cycle oil then I switch to a sin oil Klutz generally, I also use 1oz per gal of sta-bil, and I have been doing it this way for about 25 years when I got my first G-38, now 2 G62's, 2 RCGF-26's and 1 RCGF-62. Now about Filters, pump into a clean can and when transferring to my flight box can a coffee paper filter in the funnel and a sinted metal filter on my pump pick up line. No filters in my plains. Tried the cloth filters a few years back and did not like the tiny fibers found in carb screens.

The key hear is do what ever to keep your fuel clean.
