Type of Gas for Your Bad Boy Lawn Mowers?

Your Bad Boy lawn mower’s fuel system and the engine can be damaged if you run old or incorrect fuel through it. For your mower to function properly, you must not only purchase the correct fuel but also care for it.

Bad Boy zero turns fueled by unleaded gasoline are generally recommended to use 87 octanes or higher. A maximum of 10% ethanol should be present in gasoline. Also, gasoline should be stored properly – somewhere cool and dry – so that it doesn’t degrade over time from harsh environmental factors.

A fuel stabilizer will keep your lawn mower’s gas fresh if you don’t use it for more than 30 days.

Gas-powered mowers are the most common type offered by Bad Boy. Gas-powered mowers are the subject of this article. There are diesel mowers offered by Bad Boy. Check your mower’s owner’s manual if you are unsure of its type.

Choosing Gas for Your Bad Boy Lawn Mower

Fuel you can buy at gas stations today comes in so many different types. The days when regular, premium, and diesel were your only fuel options are long gone. Choosing the right gas for your lawn mower can be confusing because there are so many options.

Buy Fresh Gas for Your Bad Boy Lawn Mower

Always use fresh unleaded gas that has a low ethanol content. You need to use fuel that is made of 10% or less ethanol. Gas can begin to break down and become less effective as soon as 30 days after purchase.

This is why you should only purchase the amount of gas you can consume within a month. If you do purchase more gas than you can consume in this period, it is best to use an additive to stabilize the fuel. I talk about that further in the article.

Avoid High Amounts of Ethanol in your Bad Boy Lawn Mower

In order to keep your Bad Boy zero turn running smoothly, you should not use too much ethanol in it. The environmental benefits of gasoline can be improved by adding ethanol, a fuel derived from corn. The small engine on your lawn mower can, however, be seriously damaged by this fuel.

The use of gasoline that contains more than 10% ethanol should never be recommended. Fuel pumps are increasingly offering ethanol fuels that include higher percentages of alcohol such as E15 and E85. However, these fuels should never be used for tiny engines such as lawnmowers, which have tiny engines like those used in lawnmowers.

In even low amounts of ethanol, sugar-based alcohols attract moisture in the air and, over time, this solution separates from the petrol and settles at the bottom of the fuel tank. When this happens, your mower’s fuel system becomes clogged, resulting in deterioration and decreased performance or even failure.

Purchase a High-Quality Fuel for Your Bad Boy Lawn Mower

Choosing high-quality fuel with a low ethanol content is critical to maintaining the efficiency and smooth operation of your Bad Boy lawn mower.

It is becoming more common to find ethanol-free fuels at gas stations, and they offer a variety of advantages over conventional gasoline.

This type of fuel is commonly known as recreation fuel or REC-90. If you want to buy ethanol-free recreation fuel locally, Pure-gas.org is a great resource 

The use of gas with as little ethanol as possible is beneficial for small engines. Any concentration of ethanol over 10% can damage your engine, but gasoline normally contains up to 10% ethanol.

Alternatively, you can look in your local hardware store for pre-mixed recreational fuels that have a much lower percentage of ethanol if you can’t find 100% pure gasoline. The best choice for performance and longevity is to purchase the highest quality gas you can afford

Your Bad Boy Lawn Mower Can Benefit From a Fuel Additive

However, even though it is best to use ethanol-free fuel, I continue to use unleaded gasoline that has a 10% ethanol content, which is still of high quality. Each time I fill up my gas tank, I add a fuel additive just in case I don’t use it before it begins to decompose before I use it

Sea Foam Motor Treatment is the fuel additive that I prefer to use. Not only does this product do a good job of cleaning and lubricating the engine, but it also stabilizes my fuel for up to two years, removes moisture from my engine, and acts as a fuel system cleaner.

During the off-season, you should use this product to store excess fuel in your fuel tank. It should also be used to store fuel in your lawn mower when it is not in use.

Final Words

It is therefore crucial that you use the right kind of gasoline in your Bad Boy lawn mower. It is recommended that you use fuel with an octane rating of 87 or higher and no more than 10% ethanol by volume.

Unleaded fuel needs to be purchased fresh and not allowed to sit for prolonged periods of time, as this will degrade quality and performance. Do not store fuel near any ovens or water heaters if you need to store it in a cool, dry area.
