Question:
Cause if it is i can forget about that car because I will not spend that much on gas. Also is it the same with the EVO?
Answers:
Does anyone know if there is such a school as "Dispatcher School?" (semi-trucks)?
I am assuming that you are talking about a Suburu WRX STI...There is no petroleum manufacturer that I know of that makes 109 octane unleaded. If your Suburu is stock, you can only run unleaded gas. The only gas I know that is close to 109 is Sunoco 108 race gas which is leaded. Running leaded gas in an unleaded car will plug your converter's and destroy your oxygen sensors, in other words' it will be F'd up.
Can you get your inspetion sticker on a car with a permitte?
Now I am also assuming that you are referring to the R+M method for octane rating since nobody has been advertising octane with either Research or Motor ratings since the early 70's.
The highest octane unleaded you can buy that I know is Sunoco or Union 76 99 or 100 octane R+M method, if you can find it.
The best advice is to read your owner's manual, that is where it will say what the minimum octane requirements are for your engine.
By the way, the higher octane doesn't mean the more powerful the gas is. Octane is simply a way to rate the burn speed of the fuel. The lower the number the faster it burns. So Ether, like in starting fluid, has an octane about 40. Diesel fuel or Kerosene, has an octane of 140.
Which is better for cars, generic or brand name gasolines?
A turbo charged car needs higher octane because the cylinder's are being pressurized more which raises the chamber's temperature. If you use low octane fuel in the turbo engine the fuel will pre ignite before the piston is at the top of its stroke which will cause knock. Knock or sometimes called detonation, can destroy pistons, head gaskets or valves. So to prevent this you should run the recommend octane. Car computer's can adapt for bad gas by using the knock sensors to detect detonation, but there only method of control is to retard the ignition timing, which will not eliminate the detonation completely if the engine is driven hard, so damage could still occur.
Does the mileage (distance meter) run when the car is in reverse??
So now that we know about octane and what it means and is used for, you can also get caught up in the octane hype where more is better. Since octane is the burn rate, if you put too high of an octane in a ho hum engine, half if not more of the fuel will be sent out into the exhaust system because there is not enough cylinder pressure to ignite it. I had a friend that thought by putting premimum fuel in his Escort would help it pass emissions. But after he failed twice, I recommended that he put regular 87 octane and with only that change he passed.
What is the worse vehicle to "bump bass" in?
I hope I cleared things up. If not, send another question.
Think you can beat my car??????
No I highly doubt that, unless you're racing on the track or on the streets illegally. I would think 91 would be sufficient enough to run the STI's but I can be wrong.its not true at all..if you ran race fuel in your car all the time you would destroy the engine..you only want to use 109 octane at the track for a few runs
109 octane?? What BS!! Where are you going to buy that stuff huh?? Your friend like to tell tall tales.(AKA Liar)
Got my mock driving test today?
anything with a supercharger will take 91 to 93 octane gas.More Questions & Answers ...
