If so
On modern engines with knock sensors, higher octane fuel may make the engine run better if the knock sensors are retarding the ignition timing, which hinders performance??????????.....
rjstaaf said:Huh, isn't that exactly what the rest of us have been saying? All he said is that if your car requires premium and you run regular than you are gonna lose power. That is just another way of saying that do not run premium unless your car requires it, which is what we have all been saying here.
With the scenario above, you are not gaining any power, you are just getting back to what you should have had if you had used the proper fuel called for in the first place.
He by no means said that running premium will increase your power if your car does NOT require premium.

No one could tell me if 01 mustangs had a knock sensor for sure.
I got the answer from canadastang. I guess I will just run 87-89.
