i'm not sure what your recommended minimum is on your fuel, but i have a 95 9000CS, and i use only 89- i think 87's the min. i actually found that if i used 92, i DROPPED mileage by about 50-60 miles/tank. remember, if your engine knocks at the minimum octane, go up a step, and if that stops it, there's no need to go any higher. that is to say, that if your engine's min. octance is 87, try 87, then 89 if necessary. sleepy, try dropping to a tank full of 89 and see if that helps.
good luck
