Canadian Tire Gas

Re: Canadian Tire Gas
Well, using actual gasoline of any kind can't be any worse than the other liquids you purport to dump into your tank.
But yeah, running a tank of 87 octane when you can't find 91 isn't a huge deal on a stock tune. Our ECU's are set up to cope.

I've heard that octane level doesn't affect gas mileage Rob? I just want to hear your opinion because it seems like everyone is saying different things about octane levels.

Re: Canadian Tire Gas
well when your supposed to run 91 in our cars and that is because it perform optimally for performance, gas mileage, etc.
If your running 87 in it then your not using the octane the engine was designed for. You are going to get decreased mileage because the engine is not running optimally.
i dont see why that would not make sense?

Cheeba said that you can ruin your engine with one stroke on 87.I am afraid to go this low, but today I will check either the computer adjusts ignition timing for 89 grade that I have in the tank.
