Hang out there, we may flame, but we don't hate.

My attitude is in serious need of readjustment, and I'm ok with that.

89 is ten cents more, or like 45 cents more a tank.

91 is twenty cents more, or 90 cents more a tank.

So it doesn't really matter unless you are experiencing pinging (being that the temps here exceed 110 in the day inside the city I have to use 89, if not 91.)

said exactly the same thing on a different post  :thumb: . it gets around 110 in the sun early afternoon would 87 give me that much problems?

You won't gain any advantage from running higher octanes unless your engine is knocking (which it shouldn't be doing). I know it's cheap to put in better fuel but just stick with what your manual tells you (87).
