What fuel does Toyota use?
And by the way, in US manuals Toyota indicates literally “Unleaded gasoline (Octane rating 87 [Research Octane Number 91] or higher)”. According to JIS K 2202 standard, since 1986 term “Regular” means gasoline with RON above 89, and term “Premium” means RON above 96.
Is it OK to mix 91 and 98?
It can’t hurt your engine if you use a higher octane fuel. So, for example, if you use 95 or 98 in an engine designed for 91, that’s OK. However, it’s not acceptable to put in a lower octane fuel than the minimum recommended by the manufacturer. Using 91 in an engine designed for 95 or 98 is potentially destructive.
What happens when you put 93 gas instead of 87?
If you usually fill your tank up with 87-octane gasoline and you accidentally put in a higher octane blend (say, 91, 92, or 93), don’t worry. You’re actually filling your car or truck with a different blend of gas, which means it will burn differently in your engine.
Can I use high octane fuel in my car?
The higher octane gives premium gas greater resistance to early fuel ignition, which can result in potential damage, sometimes accompanied by audible engine knocking or pinging. But if the vehicle manufacturer says your engine needs only 87-octane regular, that is what you should use.
