I noticed in another post that your petrol (gasoline) is only 87 Ron, is that normal in the US?
I only ask because 95 Ron is our minimum octane at fuel stations (UK).
UK and US numbering is not the same. US uses (R+M)/2 method, or AKI. UK uses straight RON. 87 in the US is 91 in the UK. 95 in the UK is equivalent to US 91.
Thanks for clarifying, you learn something new every day :)
Just curious = how much is your petrol in the UK? I know it's by the liter and also in pounds but I'll figure the conversion. Thanks.
roughly £1.30 litre
87 is the lowest octane here. 88 and 91 I think is premium. Always read up on your vehicles manual. Suggested to use 87 or 88 but not 91 on my jeep and the Milan. Some want that high octane some run best lower. I'm just glad I dong still have the diesel Mercedes but it was a nice ride.
I only ever had one diesel car, a Seat Leon TD 110, was very nippy for a diesel. One day I forgot that it didn't take unleaded (since I've driven petrol cars for 30 years) - it didn't like that too much :)
Some of the mountain states in the west are as low as 85 octane and they have many places that sell e15 crap to boot.
