=================================================
Actually that should be the first question asked of people that claim "low octane fuel" is the problem. Advancing the timing too much (or just plain having it wrong) causes the same problems some here attributed to low octane.
Well, I never did really get an answer on that one before. I don't pull my 240U hard at all, just use it with a loader and rear blade... don't even have a mower any more. For what I do, it starts and runs fine, but if I ever do use it hard I may go to 91, the highest pump gas here. Matter of fact, I may just go blade my driveway after it cools down this evening, or IF it cools down... it's 100 right now.
