Owen best read the book on the 706's as per fuel requirements as to min. Octain . Ya have to remember that when they were new the fuel was a whole bunch differant and BY THE BOOK LOWEST FUEL REQUIRMENT IS 93 , Normal reg gas from back in there day was usualy 95 . The engine timing as to the total advance on these engines is of the upmost importants . myself i gave up on the champions many moons ago . I have run 706 gassers since 83 and still running them all of my close friends have 706 gassers that get the bag run off them and the only problem we have had is with the fuel . Last spring the fuel supplier hired a new guy and he brought out a load of 87 octain by mistake and we ate a piston while grinding feed , before that it was just after overhaul when the old supplier brought out 87 and it ate all 6 pistons while plowen . If you like cChampions thats fine with me but like i said i know the 706 inside and out and i know what makes them run and stay running. Maken sure that the dist. is doing what it is suppose to be doing when it is suppose to do it the propper fuel in the tank on a half decent engine they will run a long time and do what they were designed to do .Also you have to take into account that over the years that head has been milled and everytime you take off a couple here and couple there the compression goes up plus the fact that they are a higher turning engine .

Originally the company was called the Cleveland Motor Plow Company which began in 1912, then the Cleveland Tractor Company (1917) and finally Cletrac.
