If it was last years gas it is a good possibility you are trying to pass varnish thru half clogged jets. fresh gas ,clean carb,repack silencer, would be first on my list.

detonation can happen at any time.You have fresh gas, now check the carb to make sure it is clean and operational,and the silencer packing.

If it's only doing it at idle it is NOT detonation. If you expect anyone to help you'll have to provide more specific information than you have so far.

Did your rod check out when you did the top-end? (No up or down play?)
