What octane?

[BW73]

What octane gas do most of you guys run? Thanks.

91-93 ethanol free.

It’s hard to find non ethanol 93 around here. I can get non ethanol 94. Is 94 to high?

I would be fine with running 94 ethanol free. I highly doubt you will gain any real benefits with it other than piece of mind for the non ethanol part.

Ethanol free around me is usually in the 90-93 octane range. I use it simply because it's easier to stop once and get all the fuel I need for my small engine yard equipment and blaster.

No need for anything higher than regular 87 on stock blasters, but higher octane won't hurt anything ..... but your wallet
higher compression modified heads will require higher octane to combat detonation
