I just know what i have been told buy and independent lab in Columbus Ohio after we had some sever problems with several tractors , one sezed and engine after 30 hours of run time after and overhaul after pulling it down and looking at the damage the temp in the combustion chamber went off the scale and the pistons sweled over .025 and sezed above the top ring. I have worked on engines of all types and in all applacatoins from the mom and pa grosery getters , drag cars truck diesel , tractors ,construction equipment . and been through many schools and i know what is see and the problems we were haveing was fuel related we sent sampels to a lab for testing and i am going with there report . the gas of today is a whole bunch differnt then back a few years ago . the high test in my owen MTA makes about 4 hp more then the 89 octaine. A customer of mine that has a460 gas can't keep it from trying to seze on 87 when working hard but with the 93 it runs fine. Now if anybody has a better idea then i am all ears.
