What kind of gas was it. The stuff I buy usually has lead in it and is for use for off road only. I usually mix 110 and 95 at about 50/50 ratio.

Yeah must of been running real rich, but yeah thats the same stuff that sticks to your O2 sensor and messes em up.. Anything beyond 109 is leaded fuel ...
