Thank you I agree to use hi-test. All I can say is both of my Briggs and Stratton twin V engines do not run correctly on regular grade crap gas. They will struggle and fuss a little now and then while mowing. Put hi-test in their tank and they run as happy as can be. Just my experience. For small use stuff those Green,Red, and Grey cans of gas are worth it, no question. Another thing is buy your gas at the local boat docks. Totally ethanol free gas. The reason is that some boats have fiberglass fuel tanks and the ethanol was eating through the side of the tank and boat! Also too much humidity and the gas absorbs moisture. One thing I do is take my 5 gallon eagle safety can to the local airport. Buy yourself some 100 octain AV gas. Not cheep stuff. In really cold weather my old fashion Kohler castiron engine just refused to start. Put 100 octain airplane fuel in it. Readjust the needle valves on the carb, and it starts like a dream. You need to close them down a little because the 100 has a lot more oomph. These are all my opinion but I have been doing it for years. All I can say is give it a try.

I pulled the head, and soaked the stuck valves with mystery oil overnight, re-installed the head, and bingo, the compression returned. But alas, my carb foiled me again, it would fire a second then flood out. After numerous dead ends for a replacement carb, I went to work fixing mine.I soldered new floats on the float arm, they came from an old motorcycle carb, replaced the packing on the throttle shaft with o-rings, cut new ga
