Running an engine on below recommended octane gas can cause major and costly damage.


I once ran a mower engine 21 (?) years without an oil change. Beat

My neighbour "the professor" got 25 years out of his. Broke the
recoil spring on the starter on Saturday and I told him it wasn't
worth spending any time on. He went and bought a 40 volt lithium ion
powered electric.
