MertieMan Champion Author Lexington Posts:14,928 Points:2,923,310 Joined:May 2005	Message Posted: Jun 6, 2013 7:58:23 AM Ignore MertieMan Report Abuse If your car calls for 87 octane you may also be cleaning out your intakes more often by using a higher octane. All of my vehicles call for 87 octane and that is what I use. You are not getting better mileage by running a premium grade gas, it just burns hotter and costs you more money.
forresj Champion Author Wilmington Posts:2,945 Points:570,955 Joined:May 2005	Message Posted: Jun 6, 2013 7:52:20 AM Ignore forresj Report Abuse Use what's recommended on your owner's manual. Only use higher octane gas if you have problems with engine knock. Otherwise, it just a waste of money. But hey, if you want to give your money away to rich "fat cats" and terrorists, that's your decision. I hope you can live with yourself.

Your car will NOT run better, or produce more power...thats completely in your mind and not borne out by fact

c47 Champion Author Virginia Posts:12,955 Points:2,332,295 Joined:Dec 2006	Message Posted: Feb 22, 2013 9:01:33 AM Ignore c47 Report Abuse I prefer regular gas, no ethenol. Ethenol is not good for small engines. i had to have an engine replaced on my commercial lawn. there are still 2 stations left in my area that sell regular gas. its 10 cents more per gallon. also my car and truck get better gas mileage when using regular gas.
