Hockey390 Posted May 28, 2004 Report Posted May 28, 2004 I just got my top end rebuilt, and got it ported & polished blah blah blah He set me up for 93 oct. pump gas as far as squish and compression and blah blah As of now I have regualar pump gas, whatever octane that is... like 80 somethin, I already started her up with that gas in it because I wanted to see if it would start (which it did) So I want to go to premium now, should I just wait until i use up all this gas...or should I empty the tank out, and run the gas in the lines out until its dead.. then put in the premium?? Just want to know if there is a "safer" method as far as keeping the engine good and....not killing itself... Quote
J..J. Posted May 28, 2004 Report Posted May 28, 2004 If you're not tight for bucks, then dump it. Quote
fixitrod Posted May 28, 2004 Report Posted May 28, 2004 If it's setup for 93 then run 93 or your motor will need another rebuild. Quote
