Outdoor Power Equipment (Lawn Mowers, Snow Blowers, Chain Saws and more) Discussions

Well after a hectic week at work, I finally got my Toro 826 home and have a few questions. First off has anyone had any issues with the wiring for the electric start? Seems poorly routed, not tied down and seems its only a matter of time before a branch or other foreign object rips it off unless I do something. Next up, one thing I didnt realizre and assumed when spending 1500 on a snow blower that it would have heated grips but with there design I dont think its possible. Lastly what kind of gas do these briggs like? 87/89/93 octane?? The craftmsman I used for years only liked the high octane or the plug would foul out after a tank or two gas.
