At the Sebring show back in January, the Swift fuel people said that if your type certificate shows the fuel need to be less than 94 octane then you are OK to use Swift Fuel. I've got an Archer II (which is just coming out of a major engine O/H) that I would like to use Swift after engine break in. On the Archer type certificates it shows a 100/130 requirement while the Cherokee 180 (using one of the same engine types A4A) only lists 91/96.
Is this just a paperwork thing or is there a mechanical reason?
