So, just wondering what you all think about using different quality of fuel. As in 87, 89 or 93 octane gas in your saws.
When I got my last saw (the husky) it was having trouble jumping to full revs right off, even when running for a few minutes. It'd just kinda bog down for a sec before taking off. I adjusted the carb a little bit which helped, but didn't fix it completely (made it a ton better though). I was running 87 octane fuel mix and decided to try 93 for the first time (never run anything but the 87). Now the saw maxes out right after starting, and just overall runs better.
My only concern is... well, is 93 actually Okay for a saw? I've heard mixed things on it, some say it burns cooler and others say it totally screws up the carb with filth. The deal I bought it from runs 87 only, but that's just because it's cheapest. He said 93 is just a higher quality gas and would probably burn a bit better.
Any replies would be appreciated.
