Well Vet, you have sure been through wringer on those gas tractors. I remember how frustrating it was when those new 706 gas burners started eating valves, spark plugs etc. I once complained to our so called district mgr, he wrote his boss about us out here and we got a letter that dist mgr told him we had a poor attitude. That was the help we got. No one else was having any problems. Few weeks later I went to a week long session at Hickory Hills and the very first subject that was a common problem was, you guessed it. Poor engine performance on those gas burners. Burned valves, pistons, plugs etc. Wasn't long after that they introduced low ash oil, improved valves seals, different rings, oil pressure relief valves, and more. Not a lot of emphasis on gasoline octane ratings though, but they did of course have their min specs. Out here, like your tractors, they were doing their heavy work with them, not much just doodling around. Anyway, try not to let this forum get your blood pressure up. I know it isn't easy sometimes. Some have all the answers, I sure do not.
