So coming home I stopped in a gas station, asked for 93 oct super, and of course, got 87, and didn't realize untill I came back that the bill was very low, mind you this is jersey, we don't pump our own gas, so after a few minutes of being very angry they refunded my money, so I already had half a tank of 93 oct, and now half a tank of 87, and I don't wanna have issues, so is there anything I can do short of siphoning it all out and refilling.

 

well you could add octane booster... thats one route

 

just get some octane booster and drive like a grandma till you use up the tank. Its happened to me before too thanks to stupid gas attendants.

 

Dont nail it until u refill, plain and simple.

 

+1

either that or drain the Fuel Tank,

 

Aite so ill pick up booster tommorow, thanks all and happy gluttoney day

 

Just make sure you stay off the boost!

 

If you're running on your stock ecu you will be fine, just dont get on it until your next tank of gas. Your stock ECU comes with a low octane fuel map that it will switch to when it notices the drop in octane.

 

like ^ ^ said.

Drive it like normal... At worst it will use the retarded timing and richer fuel maps.

Adding octane booster it a little extreme as that stuff doesn't do crap, esp with a full tank of fuel and draining the fuel is over the top extreme.

 

Lol, I've seen several of these threads and octane boosters will do very little to help you. It's a waste of money. Like BenJ said, just drive the car real easy until you use your fuel up.

 

youre octane is roughly an average of 90..so i would worry too much.

 

did you punch that attendant square in the teeth? what do you say to that?
hey jackass you just **** in car that runs on jet fuel only? lol
(we dont have gas station attendants here in arizona, probably cause too many kids were putting **** in all the rich guys sl65 amg's

 

Just drive it a bit easier than usual. Unless you're near or at full boost it won't make a difference; and even if it did the ECU will just pull timing.

 

i live in Oregon and we have the gas attendents too.....i always get out of my car and make sure they are pumping premium in always.

Just get some octane booster.....dont boost what so ever.

 

Octane booster rasies octane 7 points
87.0 to 87.7

Stay out of boost

Dont rely on the ECU to pull timing with 87 gas and aggressive driving .
