Lets say 87 to 93 octane price diffrence is .30 cents and using the wrong lower grade fuel cost you and engine rebuild every 1000 hours. If you consume 6 gallons an hour it would save $1800 dollars to run this 87 OCTANE. HOW MORE LIFE DO YOU REALLY GET OUT OF RUNNIG 93 OCTANE TO JUSTIFY $1800 EVERY 1000 HOURS. You might even go 2500 hours if you only do light work. I bought a 706 gas and dont plan on using it heavy. Rather let the deisel do the heavy work. I.E. plowing, and mowing with discbine.

Just be smart gas tractors dont hold up to heavy loads as well as deisels but I find them more user friendly during are cold winters.
