Gasoline is a precise blend of many different
substances,  each  chosen   to  give  certain
characteristics. Gasoline  blends have  been
changing in recent years in response to con-
cerns  about  pollution  and  resulting   emis-
sions regulations.  One of the  most obvious
changes  has  been the  elimination  of  lead

marine growth.
Do not use anti-fouling  paint which includes
copper or graphite. These  paints can cause
more rapid engine corrosion.
As gasoline has changed, the amount of ad-
ditives  such as  aromatics  and  oxygenates
has  increased. These  additives  are impor-
tant for  the engines  in passenger  cars, but
they can have  detrimental effects in  marine
engines,  because of  increased  deposits in
the combustion chamber. When enough de-
posits  collect,  piston  rings  begin  sticking.
Performance  drops   and  engine   wear  in-
creases dramatically.
