You just keep on running that 93 Octain gas it will be fine Remember i fix tractors and i see the differance the gas makes and when i get into and engine i see what it looks like inside and can darn near tell ya what was burnt in it . As for worrying about the lead additives don't waste your money . I have gas tractors and i run the 93 in mine and have not had a problem they run cooler on the high test and if ya think i am kidding just park your donkey in the cab of the combine and fiil the tank with 87 and see where the engine temp goes then fill it with the 93 and it will run 30 to 40 degrees cooler . I have been there done that with this fuel thing and also show the differance on the dyno . Ya have to remember that way back when you could get real gas and it did have lead in it that reg gas was of the 93-95 octaine and hightest was above 100 and Sunoco 260 was around 107-109 And Clark was 105 Amaco lead free was in there at 105-106 . Tomany years building racing engines for the boys to play with and we would build as to the fuel and that is why we ran so well . So stick with the 93 and have less plug problems and don't worry about the Alkehol .
