Read your manual, if it calls for regular unleaded, use regular unleaded, if it wants premium, use premium. If its a flex-fuel, then it doesn't matter.

Run a "Top Tier" gasoline at the octane rating recommended by the manufacturer. Do a Google search for "Top Tier Gasoline".

Hi Jim, you are absolutely correct....it won't hurt anything in your engine.... just your wallet.... Fuel is the most expensive thing people put in their vehicles... Over time this really adds up... If it doesn't​ require premium, there's no reason to use it and you nor the car will ever know the difference. There's no real performance bonus from the higher grade. Again, lost money...
