We need to create a "Gasoline and Octane rating" sticky thread. This way, all the people who are curious about who is using what grade gasoline and why can find the answers in one thread. No need for multiple threads to eat up bandwith. For the record, I use 87 octane with all of my mods and I have no pinging or any problems at all. I also use Amsoil P.I. fuel additive to keep the gasoline and fuel system clean at every tank. It has been my experience that big companies like Exxon/Mobil, Shell, and BP tend to produce cleaner gasoline than "road side" store companies that not too many people have heard of.
Um, are you complaining about complaining? Cause if you are I want to complain about that...HercFE said:Ya know, I don't post on this website much because there a some people on here that complain if you post a question that has already been answered. Now I am no Mustang guru and have a life other than my car, so I don't know everything about it. Some people don't want to search through a ton of threads to get an answer to their questions either. I think pretty much any question that can be asked has already been covered at some point in time on here. If we didn't ask questions there wouldn't be anything to read!
Agreed. Use the Octane that the operating manual calls for.This would be 87 for a stock engine.00GTblkvert said:In stock tune 87 is just fine, it's what Ford says to use anyway and at the price of gas why spend more if you don't have to. I have been using Hess 87 and car runs fine.
