Racing fuel

[bob75]

Is anybody out there running vp methanol and having a weird odor from the fuel

[MM90]

Which one do you have? M1, M3, or M5?

[bob75]

M1. It's so bad it makes you want to vomit while your racing real bad sweet smell

[oldtrackchamp4x]

Maybe call the place you got it from and tell them what the issue is. Worth a shot. JMO

Had that issue last year, but ours smelled like garbage. Switched to buying a drum and it went away.

[bob75]

Mine is by the drum

its not an ethanol blend is it.
I have been told that E-85/e-98 stinks very bad.

my buddy is getting ready to run e-85 in a pure stock . Willy's carbs said it stinks.

[bob75]

It says. M 1. On the drum

how do you smell it while racing? sounds like you might need to seal up your (not a nice word)(not a nice word)(not a nice word)(not a nice word)pit, the only times ive had fumes where when my deck was smashed to center of the car.

[bob75]

Smells after a few laps into the race checked everything,no needle and seat problem, no leaks. Same car as last year haven't changed a thing,

[dereksehi]

I'd just put some scented upper cylinder lube in your fuel and not worry about it if its running right and there are no other issues other than the stink.

[JustAddDirt]

smell that smell

Smells after a few laps into the race checked everything,no needle and seat problem, no leaks. Same car as last year haven't changed a thing,

did you re-paint the headers?

[stock car driver]

Still don't see how you can breath in racing exhaust while racing....... Ive got a helmet air system and never smell race exh while racing or under caution.


I would fix the holes its going thru.

[bob75]

O I can like I said it bad, at first I thought it was the car in front of But not 3 weeks in a row and a different car that's why I think it's mine

I don't know what it is about E85 but I dread lining up next to the throttle jockey running E85 in the staging lanes. Smells like rotting dead fish covered in burnt popcorn after a my dog took a dump on after getting into the left over Taco Bell.
