what can possably be the difference between Hucks 92 octane and BP 93 octane???? thats what I asked myself too..... but the logger tells all

last night while logging my car we were fighting a nasty fuel cut and chased a boost leak.....
we finally got my fuel leaned out enough that the fuel cut went away, but we were still finding 17-21 counts of knock between 4500 and 6000 RPM

that is until I decided that it was time to refuel

ncgalant and I stopped at BP and filled my GSX with 93 octane

we decided to do one final pull with the good stuff and WOW!!!!!! 6 counts of knock all the way past 6000

I didn't think it was going to make that huge of a difference but it did..... its 93 octane for me, from now on....

I always use BP when given the chance. If nothing else, I think it helps to be consistent with where you purchase gas and there are a lot of BP's in the area.

You need to have your head checked for throwing Hucks gas in any vehicle you own. I'd sooner pour sugar in my tank than that swill. You'd be better off with Clark ::shudder::.

thats the only thing i put in my car. i tried the middle grade once to try and "ween" it off the 2.00/gal 93, but the Z gets pissy and runs like crap w/o it.

Holly post whore batman. Yea I was quite amased. After working on the car for two hours or so and seeing knock as high as twenty counts I was ready to throw in the towel. It was amasing how much difference that one octane made. We were both like, how much difference can one octane make. Durring the log I busted up laughing as the knock stayed at 0 until 6000 then worked up to a meesly 5 by 6500.

I've been going to BP in Maryland. There is some additive in the gas in the DC area that makes it burn cleaner. however, it makes your car run worse.
