Camping Fuel????
So you guys are running this stuff through your engines?
Camping Fuel:

Coleman Fuel:

White Gas:

I know they are all the same thing, and that they are basically purified gasoline, but doesn't it cause engine knocking? It seems like the low octane rating would cause overheating and severe engine damage. But, if I knew for sure, I wouldn't be asking.
Also, if it works for 20-something CC engines, would it work for a larger engine, such as a 2 stroke, 50CC engine on a mini bike?

Yes it works. No I don't use it.... Petrol (gas) is cheap enough. Zenoah engines like a higher octane fuel (they state super plus 98 as an ideal fuel)
