ok i go to the gas station yesterday and tell the gas guy to give me 20 buck super but he put in regular and i didnt notice until it had finished pumping no i have to get some octane booster. but will the reg. gas screw my car up? and why do all gas station attendents not speeak english? so i tell the guy i cant use regular and he simply reply its bussy today and closes my gas tank. now what would any of u done?

is your tII modded? cause i ran 87 in mine it didnt hurt a thing ever

Don't stress about it.



Don't you get to select the grade of gas by yourself?



Where are you filling up at?

full custom turbo back exaust and hks intake for now hopefully in a couple weeks ill throw in my new monster ported engine and bnr stage 3turbo

jersey is the only state where the goverment doesnt trust its customers pumping their own gas we have full service stations

i believe you are the guy that bought my friends motor on long island.





you need real octane booster, and dont drive it hard also

Oregon won't allow customers to pump either

yeah, just dont boost it

i did buy ur friends engine cant wait to put it in, its just sitting in kevins garage for the time being . but i didnt no about oregon thought it was just jersey being stingey with there gas. ive been trying not to drive it b/c one one my outer tierod ends is mad fucked up i dont need the tire folding on me while driving could cause more damage then i need at the moment. i just change the whole steering knuckle assembly on the passenger side. and by definition wut exactly is "real octane booster"

put a quart of toulene in there

that will fix you right up

Not to sound too stupid, but what's Toulene?

To be on the safe side, just drive like a little old lady until you use that tank up.



It's spelled "toluene".



n.



A colorless flammable liquid, CH3C6H5, obtained from coal tar or petroleum and used in aviation fuel and other high-octane fuels, in dyestuffs, explosives, and as a solvent for gums and lacquers. Also called methylbenzene.

cool ****

wtf.....how dumb are you guys...... https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683785.gif

Basically it's paint thinner with the neat side effect of raising octane levels.

Stock TII's are designed to still run on 87 it wont hurt a damn. A little more boost wont matter to much it just mainly depends on your temps if the fuel is detonating. If the motor starts knocking stop pushing it that hard. 20 bux wont last very long anyhow.

I would urge a bit more caution than that. By the time you're aware of detonation, you may have already toasted your engine. Not sure of his mod list, but any weakness in the fuel system of a car nearly 20 years old will just make the likelihood of having a problem that much worse.



Not that there's any real similarity between the two cars, but I've daily driven a Volvo turbo that "recommends" (not "requires") premium fuel on regular gas and it will ping like crazy if I run it hard. On premium, it runs sweet on full boost to redline.



Of course by now, he's surely used that tankful up. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683785.gif

or is at home pulling the engine out.
