Premium during ths summer months.... Posted by MI-Roger [Email] ![]() ![]() In Reply to: Gas in 2000 9-5, 9-5 Newbie, Sat, 3 Feb 2007 18:17:49 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
I use Mid-Grade (89 octane here in Michigan) from around Labor Day to around Memorial Day, then use Premium (93 octane) during the summer months. My 2000 lpt runs MUCH better on Premium when the temperatures are hot.
I have followed this practice since the car was nearly new with no problems. I also don't notice any MPG difference between Mid-Grand and premium.
