Re: Which grade gasoline to use? 700 1989

posted by  someone claiming to be reysc on  Wed Nov 7 06:07 CST 2001 [RELATED]

Greg,I have an '86 744 Gle 225k and I've been using Texaco premium (91) for the past ten or eleven years.IMHO our cars run better on 91 octane or higher.Have tried 89 a few times ( when gas gets expensive) and I'm not sure, maybe it's just me,but I thinks I can hear my 8 valves making ticking

sounds and I'm losing some power to my already old and under powered brick.

That's my $0.02 on the matter..Rey
