Default Regular or Premium Gas?

Compression dictates octane.
Up to 140# +/- regular/midgrade is fine.
140~180=premium

Default Regular or Premium Gas?

Reelgator,
I checked mine (150 cc)when it was new with regular 87 octane and it ran 29-30 mph with a GPS and with 97 octane it ran 30 -31 mph now the temp was different from the first week but I ran the same roads on the Plantation.

It's not that much to go with Prem gas over regular...I have been running it in my mowers for years...I buy a five gal. jug and it cost 20 cent per gallon more...that's $1.00 more for how much riding....plus if you buy the white gas from amaco it will be cleaner.....I.m sure the regular will run just fine....but what a dollar if you think it's running better?
