I am going to double check the timing tonight and pump some premium in and see what happens... Frankly, it's been against my grain to put 87 in but the thing has the same compression as my push mower

I can promise there is some carbon buildup on the pistons and the heads. It just takes one piston or head to have a little too much and it is ping time.
