I have recently purchased a zl 86 ford fairlane.

It is costing me a fortune to fill with octane 98.

Someone told me it won't hurt the engine to fill with regular unleaded
and only fill with octane 98 once a month? any suggestions?

thanks,

Gary Brassington

Leaded fuel was 95ron. You need to run premium unleaded to maintain your
current tune.

If you want to run 91ron unleaded? You'll have to tune for it.

Leaded fuel was 96ron. You need to run premium unleaded (95ron) to maintain
your
current tune.
