lol, i meant regular, midgrade, premium

Do you want the best performance and knock protection? Then you will get premium (91+). Do you want to cheap out? Then get whatever low grade 10% ethanol mix you can find.
|
For me it depends on the price difference between Regular and Premium. When it was 15 to 20 cents a gallon difference I was buying premium. Price is going back up here with Regular at $1.95 and Premium at $3.10
|
Jesus, 87 is $1.69 in OK. 91 is only $1.91.

If the car was recommended for premimum but can use regular you would be partially right. because of all the sensors on these engines it can detect what grade gas is bing used and retune it'self accordingly. so knocking is not a problem..but performance will be downgraded some.. My Sky and HHR are recommended for premimum but they can use regular, which I use most of the time. and back when the gas went to $4.50 a gallon there was no premimum... |
Why not use premium? It's just like why not use synthetic oil. It can't do anything but help, and the only difference it cost. If you want the best for your car, and the price difference is agreeable with you, go for it.

But it won't do anything for the V6. It was fuel-mapped FOR regular, certified on regular, and reccomends regular...there is no benefit in running higher octane in this engine.:iono: |

till you throw TT's on it....lol either motor will have premium ran in it if I'm filling it up. |
Since this is the V6 powertrain section I assumed this was talking only about the V6.
Maybe the title should reflect that. |
