unleaded fuel

Re: unleaded fuel

Just a tid bit I read (I believe it was the owners manual in a 68 Ford) about 20 years ago.

It said to use a good grade REGULAR of at least 94 OCTANE.

We have gone a long way since then with fuel, BACKWARDS.

Here in CA, 91 is now premium.

Sixties octane was RON, which is still used in Europe, but it's not the same as today's PON used in the US.

This has been explained a zillion times including how to convert (approximately) between RON, MON, PON, and Aviation Octane Rating, which are the four currently used "octane ratings".

These numbers get thrown around on the Web all the time, and most seem to have no idea that there are multiple octane rating methods or which one is being discussed.

Duke your right,
A Zillion times.

Before I sign off I will say that the zillion times still does not work in my gas tank.

To make my engine develop factory born HP I need to use what I explained a few times.
