Default fuel question,,,,


as you guys know I have had a hard time starting my MVVS 35cc gasser (I just haven't flown it in 3 months), and I still have a hard time starting it even though the new carb works great, and the motor runs beautiful/fantastic-O once it starts,,,

but what I have noticed about this motor is it has a higher compression ratio than many US made motors, in-fact it has a lot of compression~ although my MVVS 35 is a smaller motor it has a higher compression ratio than my friends BME 105cc,,,

question,,,
so I have been burning 89 octane in it, do you guys think it would start better with a higher octane of 93 or 94 ???

I just though I would ask before i try it...
