Good Post! Just a few tips. I run a lawn mowing company, so we deal with this all the time. You can not run 87 gas in a Honda. It will void the warranty. Too much ethanol. Honda put out a service bulletin about it. I put 92 and stabilizer in when they are going to sit. Once started they run rough till the gas goes through. One more tank of 92 and then I switch to 89 and they usually run great. Haven't had to clean a carb in some for five years or more. Also I use good gas, no AM/PM gas.
That's good to know considering that prior to Jan 1 of this year you couldn't buy ANY gas in Oregon without 10% ethanol. They changed to law to allow dealers to exempt 91 octane but carrying it is optional. I'll have to see who's selling what.
