Generator on 100LL?

Does anyone have any experience with running 100LL in a generator?

I picked up a small and quiet (900 Watt) genny a week or so back for
Oshkosk, and am considering the fuel options for it once we get there.

The manual was of only minor help, mentioning a minimum of 87 Octane
"unleaded". Its the latter that worries me, since it specifically mentions
unleaded, although given the bad japanese translation of the rest of the
manual, I'm not sure how much attention I should really pay to it.

The long and the short of it is that it's basically a 2 stroke carburated
single cylinder - nothing fancy. I can't see the lead in 100LL causing much
of an issue beyond the occasional plug fouling from deposits, and the high
octane should be of no relevance either. Presumably 2-stroke oil will mix
just as hapilly with 100LL as it does with Mogas, so I don't see any issues
there either.

Once it's home I'll run a tank of mogas through it to clean up whatever may
be left of the 100LL.

Of course, if mogas is easilly available within a reasonable distance of the
GAC area, this may all be rather moot, as I'll hapilly use it instead.

And yes, before anyone mentions it, we are using it the absolute minimum
necessary..and not at all in the evenings or early mornings. 30 or 40
minutes per day to charge the electronics (Probably done when the camping
area is quietest through the peak daytime hours (to further minimize the
bother) is the plan. That aside, it's remarkably quiet anyways.

Opinions?
