The tractor vet said: (quoted from post at 17:16:47 06/02/09) And the difference between running reg gas and running the good stuff is 40 buck per 200 gal . So big deal if it make the tractor run wright and last . And the use of the correct oil here again so what you have to use a low ash 30 weight . Good god if your that cheep then go buy a David Brown if ya want a VW of the tractor world .
Hey vet, I got a 400 gallon tank of 87 octane sitting here that works fine in all my 4 cylinder tractors, and my modern high-compression cars and trucks. 80 bucks go a long way, even in this day and age. I go through about 1200 gallons a year between my truck and putzing around with my toy tractors. That's 240 bucks savings.
So if I get a 6 cylinder I either gotta drive 30 miles with a bunch of gas cans, pay rent on another tank, or pay the long buck to fill my tank with the expensive gas that buys me nothing for 99% of what I use it for.
Yeah, that makes sense.
All I asked is if you could de-tune a 6 cylinder so you could use it on the cheaper gas without killing the engine.
