Cut and pasted from Shell.ca
"Shell V-PowerŪ NiTRO+ Premium Gasoline helps keep your engine running like new* with:
Four levels of engine protection against gunk, wear, corrosion and friction
The highest octane of all Shell fuels at 91 octane
The highest concentration of the Shell Nitrogen Enriched Cleaning System
Seven times the minimum amount of cleaning agents required by federal standard
0% ethanol at every station in Canada"

Ya but remember to pump 1 liter or two into your car first before filling your gas container as you never know what the last grade was used at the pump and will still be in the hose!
Another alternative is AVGAS. No Ethanol 100 or 115 octane and doesn't smell like regular gas.
As for oil I use the nice Strawberry Smelling
iPONE Samourai. It is a two stroke Racing Oil for indoor Motocross Dirt Tracks and Strawberry Scented so while your still breathing in the fumes at least it smells good. It can be mixed from 35:1 to 100:1. Available from Royal Distributing.
