(and the rebels are running towards you with guns blazing) then your plane will fly fine with mogas (STC or no STC).
Well, if your plane is a Piper Tomahawk, Cessna 185, or 206 (for three examples of aircraft with which I have do Mogas experience back in the testing days), the rebels might catch up to you a mile or so off the end of the runway.

Many aircraft fly fine with Mogas, a few not so well. Don't experiment, unless doing so is your profession....
Only add mogas to one tank. Takeoff with the avgas tank and cruise with the mogas tank while thumbing nose at the rebels.
