![]() I think I did have some bad gas...cause I pumped it full of 92 octane today and it ran just fine again. So, it would slow me down because it's making the ignition work harder to burn it right? Only way I could get power out of it would be to advance the living sh*t out of it since the extra octane would allow for it, I assume....but I'm afraid of timing. I broke in the motor at 16 degrees accidentally and it never felt like it ran good until I discovered it and cranked it down to 13-14....
