APPLICATIONS
Complies
with the FIA and FIM 2002 regulations.
Especially
blended for 4-stroke racing engines
running at high rpm.
Thanks to
its original blend and its quite
high octane ratings, ELF LM®S can
be used in a wide range of applications
including both natural aspirated
(atmospheric) and turbo-charged
engines.
Typical
applications : 24H LE MANS (from
which the name of this fuel is coming
thanks to the allowance of Le Mans
Organisation : used for both 24H
endurance races of cars and motorbikes),
GT, F3, … Rallies.
It is to
be mentioned that this fuel is considering
the environmental purposes as a
major concern and have especially
extremely low contents of sulphur
and benzene.
RECOMMENDATIONS
Air/Fuel
ratio needs to be re-tuned according
to the relatively high density of
ELF LM®S compared to the average
value of commercial fuels. As a
consequence it is generally necessary
to reduce gasoline flows for optimum
results (usually best equivalent
air/fuel ratios are in the range
of 1.10 to 1.15 for atmospheric
engines and around 1.20 for supercharged
engines). Ignition setting should
also be re-tuned in order to reach
optimum performances.
In order
to maintain the original properties,
and according to Health and Safety
regulations of commercial fuels,
this gasoline shall be handled and
stored in a cool place and always
maintained in tightly shut drums.
