It is my understanding on smaller engines the 92 octane is a far too

Rich? Please define what you mean by rich.


And in my
area finding the ethanol-free gas is getting extremely difficult.

If you RTFM, on most small engines, 87 octane is the highest recommended.
But who reads those? Now, I said MOST. That does not mean ALL. If you
have any doubt, just look in that little paper manual that came with the
machine. Remember that? No. Oh, well, you can download one.
