So Strap, is their a specific octane number you run best on ?

Been there done that, burns like hell. Try being 10 and deciding to
siphen
out a gallon of gas from your dads truck for your minibike with a length
of
hose for the first time. I knew to suck, just not when to stop
Nothing
like belching gas fumes for few hours, not to mention getting in trouble
for trying to get dad's gas.

I had the cap fly off the gas tank on my just filled minibike in 1972. I
still remember the burning sensation when it splashed on the family jewels.
Dang that stings.

A friend who was "too friendly with the natives" got himself a good
dose of the "crabs" back in the seventies in Africa.
He was bemoning his condition and asked for a remedy.
I told him to swab himself with parafin( not the wax, that smelly
varsol/kerosene like stuff that is used as lamp fuel abont other
things in the third world.

Next time I saw him he almost killed me - but I asked him "did it
work"? He answered yes.
"Will you be careless enough to catch then again, knowing the remedy?"
He answered "HELL NO!!!!"
