I read above that running higher octane would cause more carbon buildup which I REALLY don't want. Was that statement true? Would there be any negative effects if I switch down to 87 octane now?
My car has roughly 230 miles on it only so far. |
Salesman is wrong... you can run 87...
Not sure of the carbon build up... my gut instinct is that it wouldn't be a problem... but I have nothing to back that up...
