Does it make it much cheaper per litre like that?

 

 

Yes it does

Whats the price if you do not mind me asking

As i buy in 5lts

[GardenKit]

Buying in 5litres at RRP 2t is £3.80 per litre inc vat

Buy a pallet of 54 x5litres, get discount and free delivery so £3.41 per litre inc vat

Buy 200litre barrel at £3.32 per litre inc vat

(based on my prices, others may vary)

Just had my first experience with aspen. I was given 5 litres at the arb fair and thought I would give it a go in my ms660. First 2 tanks went great. 3rd tank used today and it's seized solid. Aspen will of course say nothing to do with the fuel, but it will take a lot of persuading to convince me it wasn't. Saw was only 3 years old too. Feeling gutted.

That is really bad to hear Duncan and I feel gutted for you.

But please be open minded. I know its one hell of a coincidence, but Aspen cannot be responsible for this, it is after all, better in every respect than pump petrol.

The fuel itself is very pure, and the FRT oil is of an extremely high grade that surpasses the requirements of the saw. It simply does not cause saws to fail as the many satisfied users on here will testify.

 

I sell an incredible amount of Aspen and all my service work goes out with a tank full. I NEVER have any issues of engine damage. I get a hell of a lot of seized saws that have run on petrol though.

 

There simply has to be another reason, which a competent engineer should be able to identify, so please give Aspen the benefit of the doubt until the cause is found.

 

Please keep us updated when you get a professional verdict, or if you are close to me please feel free to bring it in and we can strip it down and analyse it together.

It was in a red container wasn't it ?

[Duncansimpson]

Yes it was in red container. I will get it stripped down and report back.

Will be interested to hear your findings , i run Aspen 2 and 4 in my own equipment .

[Hodge]

I run 2t and 4t and have done for years without issue. It will be interesting to see what caused the seizure.
