@MummaBearWe have 85, 87, and 91 here in Denver. The elevation makes higher octane less necessary. Harder to get predetonation (knock) with less air available. @scottdhansen

@MummaBear @chanon There are some cars that require the 93 octane for performance reasons. My turbo boxer engine (FA24 2.4-liter turbocharged Boxer engine) in the subaru doesn't. It burns 87 just fine.

@scottdhansenI had a friend who accidentally put 85 in a high compression car that needed premium and it was running terribly. We found a station that sold 105 for race cars and topped his tank off with that. It was expensive, but it fixed it. @MummaBear

@MummaBear @chanon @scottdhansen If we’re talking about ordinary grocery getters, high quality engine oil matters more than high octane fuel.
