Paul, the following was posted by JD Newman on the Cozy news group.

"Hi All,

    I read, once upon a time long ago, in a prominent publication (can't
remember at this
moment),
that if you mix 1/3 avgas with 2/3 auto gas (and try to maintain that
ratio), the avgas
basically
takes care of the vapor lock and freezing concerns of using auto gas,
increases the
octane of the
auto gas slightly and helps with the engine materials compatibility
issues.  And the auto
gas takes
care of some of the avgas issues (runs better, excess lead).  I tried
this in my C-150 -
worked
well.

Infinity's Forever,

            JD"
