What type of gas to you use in your car?

[Dr. Detroit]

Premium - it's required

You will get better MPG if you use lower octane fuel, ya'll know that right? So for car that only need 87, stick to 87!

What car do you drive?

premium aint going to clean shit

if you want a clean engine run 100% ethyl. You'll need a little work for that to run though

 

[psteng19]

I assume that by unleaded, you mean regular octane 87.
Please change the poll so that it doesn't make you look

You just made me vomit.

I use regular in the daily driver. I use premium in the Z, because it requires it.

 

[TheLonelyPhoenix]

87 octane, like the owner's manual says.

87

 

[SilentZero]

Premium because its required

 

[Stumps]

my 1986 Falcon uses regular, my 1978 Falcon uses premium..but an 11.1 comp will do that

 

[Cawchy87]

regular 93 camry.

 

[Imyourzero]

I use 93 because I bumped the timing in my car and if I run less I might ping. However, if your car is stock, by all means use what it recommends in the owner's manual. If your car can run on 87 or 89, save your damn money and run that stuff!!

 

[wbresson]

93 required

same...cept turbo

 

[nakedfrog]

89 is generally cheaper around these parts... however most of the time I had my 2000 Prizm I used 87 in it because it seemed to get better mileage. However, in the Sebring, we just recently started using 89 and it seems to be getting better mileage.

 

[poopaskoopa]

93 as directed.

That blinker fluid needs flushing yearly, too..PITA.

 

[skywhr]

I run 87 in my car and
93 in the truck, its required for the SC

You are supposed to run what the manufacturer recommends, nothing higher or lower

 

[sharkeeper]

Gas?

Well if your car runs on GAS then there is only one kind you can use.

Now if you're talkking about GASOLINE, that's another story.

RTFM then go to the filling station and purchase the recommended stuff. TURN OFF YOUR CELLPHONE and EXTINGUISH ANY LIGHTED TOBACCO PRODUCTS on your person before activating fuel pumps.

No, you like to waste your money. Better gas doesn't do anything for you unless your engine is tuned for it.
