I would have had to agree with you a few years ago but the advice to run premium fuel is right from the manufacturer. The shop I spoke to has had this advice given to them from both Briggs and Echo. I run a landscape company and have 4 of these engines on different machines, Little Wonder and Billy Goat. I also have a 9 hs Robin and a 8 hs Honda and have never had an issue with these but 3 of the Briggs have had the same problem. Unless the fuel is old when we purchase it, I doubt that is an issue. These lot blowers run about 4 hours a day so fuel is never in them long enough to get old. One engine shop advises running Marvel Mystery oil in the fuel to avoid the issue, so may have to try that. Thanks for the advice. will have to gap it today.
