For splicing really thick wires, use Burndy split-bolts. The usual home centers carry these, or of course any real electrical supply. It's a bronze bolt, split down the threaded end, with a mating n

I think his question was in regard to Echo's new requirement to use 89 octane fuel (if you ask them they will say 89 minimum - higher is OK), but their manuals now just say 89 octane. It seems odd fo
