I was wondering if i should put 93 in it or if 87 is good? Anyone know which is better?
|
87, no need for anything higher in an N/A. They run better on lower octane gas.
|
87 octane is what I run. I ran 93 octane once and it didn't really do anything other than put a dent in my wallet
|
87 lower ocatane performs better in NA's
|
I was told that lower octane is more volatile, is that true? Also, that higher compression engines use higher octane, because they ignite at a higher temperature. So, that would mean that, unless you have a high-performance, high-compression machine, lower octane is actually better, right? Am I close?
|
I put 87 in mine.. only put premium in it once, to pass smog..
|
I guess the question is how low can you go? Someone told me that they once put 80 in theirs, but they were probably bullshitting me. Nothin but 87 for me.
|
always 87
sometimes higher when its the only pump avail. or when i make a mistake |
What about premix? We decided that premixing lowers the octane about 1 point, was it ever decide that 86 was good enough, or should you switch to 89 if you premix (giving a working octane of 88)?

No ****, most places in Toledo Have 89, 91, and 93
Only some of the ghetto stations have 87 let alone 80! |

I think you misunderstood, I've never seen anything less than 87 lol
|
I was saying that because you are from Toledo, what do they say
in Toledo instead of holy toledo? |
lol, I guess that's what we say too, but it's prolly been said so many times that no one says it anymore, so I guess we don't say it, but some people do https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/wacko.png

Older, older, I mean older!!! piston airplanes used to run on 80 low lead fuel. You maybe able to find some at a small airport that runs old biplanes or cropdusters or something like that. Piston planes usually all run on 100 LL AVGAS.
Why you would want to I haven't got a clue. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683561.gif |
