General/Universal question??

Post by BigBoy69 »

So, say you are traveling and you have your tune for 93 octane downloaded to your vehicle. Say you stop and you can't get 93 octane, and you're almost empty and you have to fill up with 89 octane. Will the vehicle act up if you have to run 89 or will it run fine, you just wont have the same HP???

the 91/93 tune has higher timing settings for the higher octane.. you don't want to use anything lower than 91.. should be able to find at least 91 anywhere...

if you can't, then you can use 89, but do NOT "get on it".. no WOT... just drive it easy until you can run out the gas and fill back up with 91/93..

or, if you have the tool in the vehicle, just install the 87 octane tune...
