This specification covers formulating requirements for purchases of a UL100 unleaded aviation gasoline test fuel under contract and is intended solely for use by purchasing agencies for testing purposes. It prescribes the required properties of unleaded D7960 fuel at the time and place of delivery. The suitability of this fuel for use on any specific aircraft, aircraft engine, or ground-based fuel handling equipment should be evaluated before use on that equipment. Included in this specification are requirements for the manufacture of D7960 fuel and additives; workmanship, finish, and appearance; sampling; and the type and number of reports to ensure conformance with the requirements of this specification. Products shall conform to the requirements that shall be determined in accordance with ASTM test methods for knock value (lean rating), tetraethyl lead, density, distillation, vapor pressure, freezing point, sulfur, net heat of combustion, corrosion (copper strip), potential gum and visible lead precipitate, water reaction, and electrical conductivity.
