I just had a repair done on my '04 Regent (16 hp Honda twin) and the dealer's mechanic said that ethenol in the gas damaged the carb and fuel pump and had to be replaced. He said this serious and growing problem accounts for a large portion of their repair work. I did a search and found much info to support his claim. If this is true about ethenol, why aren't there warnings on gas pumps and in owner's manuals? I was told to use 93 octane gas (no ethenol) to avoid more damage. Is high test gas okay to use in this engine? Thanks.
