Re: Octane booster...yes or no?
Just run it down to 3/4 tank and fill up with 93.
Do this about three times then fill as required.sigpic

Re: Octane booster...yes or no?
I was low on fuel and stopped at a station just to find out they no longer sold high octane gas. Filled up and noticed a significant decrease in performance. I now carry a bottle of the 104 in the trunk if it should happen again.T-Bird Obsessive Compulsive (TOC)2002 Blue/Full Accent Blue/Blue/White

Good solution. Make sure you drive. I would not trust my wife's driving.
