Might be a crazy question but . . . .
I got my 1990 Grand Marquis 5.0 EFI when it had around 50,000 miles on it. Now there are 145,000.
I knew the previous owner well and he told me that he had used high test gas from the day he bought the car so I continued the same.
Now with the gas rip-off going on, one day I had put AMOCO Silver in instead of Gold and I might be nuts but to me the car seems to be running better. Idling, acceleration and more, they all seem better and I know this car like the back of my hand.
Is this in my mind or is it possible that a lower octane gas can make these changes for the better in my car?
Still scared to use regular though.
