Your tractor is lower compression, higher power type of engine.
It doesnt want premium. Tho it would make more power on ethanol if tuned for it.
Regular gasoline including ethanol blend 10% will work best.
Ethanol blends might pull loose the gum and varnish from the tank that gasoline leaves behind, and might clog up your fuel filter.

Some old gasket materials dont hold up to ethanol over time. A 10% blend is hardly ever a problem, and why manufacturers continue to use these outdated materials is beyond me.
Some folk have problems with water in their fuel. Most folk never do, if you are letting water get in your fuel ethanol blends make it show up worse. But, you already have a problem if you get that much water in your fuel. Probably good the ethanol reviled the problem to you.....
