Question about th Weber SideDraft Carb....

Hey, i've got the Weber side draft and acouple of days ago i was wondering what kind of gas i should use in it and almost everyone said that since i have no turbo that i should run 89 octane, well now my car isn't starting, and it seems like ever since i put the 89 in there it's been running like crap and barely starting, do you think i should run only 93 in it since it's carbed?

Stock compression non turbos always run best Lowest octane you can find, why would you put anything higher than 87 RON octane???

Tell you what just send me a check for the 3 or 4 dollars you have been throwing away each fill up by using 89 or higher octanes, and use 87 or 85.
