Easy fuel up that works well
Really like the convenience of not having to mix the fuel myself. My blower and weedeater really love this fuel.

    fast and easy!
    We just recently got a fuel ststion with non Ethanol gas in 89 grade octsne. I was in a hurry and didnt eant to run way across town to purchase it so homedeot had these fast and easy, no micing or guessing added 50:1 perfect with fuel stabilizer and 93 oct its a win win. Sure its more expensive then buying a gallon, mixing thr oil and stsbilizer but just a few bucks for the average residential homeowner its perfect for one months supply.

      It's high octane with no ethanol and fuel protection. Fills the weedeater up several times. Weed eater runs great. It's a little expensive but it's worth it. If you're not doing a tremendous amount of weed eating. Fills the tank a couple of times. I would highly recommend it for your weed eater or chainsaw.

      Pre mixed fuel for my ECHO PB250LN blower, works great! No hassle mixing, has a color which helps show how much is left in the tank, and is designed for ECHO, which just happens to be THE BEST blower I have ever had! My hope is the Ethanol Free fuel will extend the life of the blower.

      I am using pre-mixed fuel such as this product in all my new as well as current two-cycle equipment. This has helped me avoid the contamination and other surprises that I've encountered when I use my own fuel/oil mixes. Now I can be confident my new trimmers will last longer and be trouble free for a lot longer than before.

      Red Armor Fuel Works Well
      The primary benefit I observed from using Red Armor Fuel 50:1 Pre-Mixed Ethanol Free Fuel over cheap gasoline containing ethanol was that it allowed my two cycle gasoline engine to run at full throttle without flattening or leaning out despite the fact I don't run it at full throttle during use. Cold starting on ethanol fuel my trimmer starts acceptably, six pumps of the fuel bulb per instructions, fires and dies on third pull of the rope at full choke, fires and runs continuously on third pull of the rope at half choke, and after about one minute of warmup time, idles and accepts throttle with the choke off. Cold starting, on Red Armor Fuel 50:1 Pre-Mixed Ethanol Free Fuel after six pumps of the primer bulb, fires and dies on the first pull of the rope at full choke, fires and runs continuously on the first pull of the rope at half choke, and after some warm up time runs fine off choke. I find most small gasoline engine performance problems to be related to poor maintenance, dirty spark arrestor, eroded spark plug, restricted fuel lines and filters, and damaged carburetors due to old contaminated fuel. Ethanol free, high octane, premixed, Red Armor Fuel 50:1 Pre-Mixed Ethanol Free Fuel allows two cycle gasoline engines to achieve maximum performance. However it might not help overcome poor engine performance related to engine maintenance issues. In my case I don't think Red Armor Fuel 50:1 Pre-Mixed Ethanol Free Fuel provides enough benefit to justify the higher cost of using it over mixing two cycle oil with cheap ethanol gasoline. I don't mind a few extra pulls of the rope to start my trimmer. While I am not a fan of ethanol in gasoline, it has never damaged any of my small engine carburetors in more than ten years of use. I think the manufacturer needs to improve the sealing capability of their containers. Mine was leaking fuel and the cap was not loose.

      Gray Plastic Seal discontinued?
      Ok this is a very convenient option & indeed superior! However the cost is ridiculous! It isn't difficult to locate ethanol free gas service, & doesn't take a genius to mix Red Armor Oil to a ratio of 50:1. That being said, I do like PowerFuel for breaking in new power equipment & for seasoning in winter. Unfortunately I can no longer confide in the integrity of its contents because Echo discontinued the gray plastic seal. I attached a photo with red arrows for specification. Without the plastic seal, the fuel leaks. Also who is to say it wasn't opened & compromised by someone else via return or whatever? & furthermore, PowerFuel claims to have a shelf life of 5 years unopened & 2 years opened... well if it can leak without the gray seal, obviously air can enter all the same thus eliminating the benefit of fresh stable fuel. If Echo is trying to minimize cost & take shortcuts, shame on them because this is ALREAdY overpriced. Competition is half the cost & sealed to perfection! So until Echo brings back a seal that resolves all these issues, they lost my business for premixed fuel.

      i love this
      I use this in my echo straight shaft weed wacker starts on first pull pulled plug after first year looked brand new so all it needed was air filter i went threw three big cans last year and 2 already this year much easier then mixing no ethanol i went to the non ethanol gas for lawn mower after 2 carbs its more expensive short term but saves you lots of money in the long term so dont let the corn rot your carbs i learned the hard way nothing like renting a lawn mower waiting for a carb for your lawn mower its embarrasing neighbor asked if i bought a new lawn mower

          Convenient and don't have to mix a gallon at a time. Less hassle than having to mix fuel. Will be stable long enough for my use.

          All I have ever used in my echo trimmer since I bought it over 8 years ago. Never had to tune it up or change spark plug and it starts every time.

          I use it in all Echo and Stihl equipment. I'm positive it beats anything with ethanol in it.

          I had difficulty finding the product which I have bought from the Home Depot for several years. Even the sales associate had difficulty finding it. I later learned it is being discontinued at the Home Depot which will require me to shop elsewhere.

          HAVE YOU GUYS LOST YOUR MIND!
          $165 for this! Have you lost your mind! This a month ago was $38. If the rest of your prices are now this ridiculous you will lose a long time customer and all my accounts! Epic failure!

            I had to travel to 2 different Home Depot stores before finding available inventory. The closest location with availability was an hour away. The Echo backpack blower that I purchased from HD recommends only this fuel mix and HD seems to be the only local supplier so let’s get on the ball .
