(b)
Fuel Requirements
The
minimum
aviation
grade
fuel for the 32-301T, is 100.
Since the
use of lower grades can cause serious engine
damage
in a
short
period of time,
the
engine warranty is
invalidated
by
the
use of
lower
octanes.
Whenever
100 or l00LL grade fuel is
not
available, commercial
grade
100/ 130
should
be used.
(See Fuel
Grade
Comparison
Chart.) Refer to the
latest issue of Lycoming
Service Instruction
No. 1070 for additional
information.
A summary
of
the
current grades as well as
the previous
fuel
designations
