What flavor gas do you use in your 600?

Post by misterpoopoohead »

Hi Gang,
I was wondering what type of gas you burn in your 600?
Regular? Premium?
Thanks,
kev

The car was designed to run on regular gas. The only reason to run premium
is if you are experiencing engine knock and you are not ready to fix the
problem (i.e. rebuild the top end of the engine or check the timing).

Hello from NY. I have a AZ600. And I am having a
problem with the tail lights. I do you figure out how
to hook them up so they respond right?
cheers

Hmm, don't think I can get 95 octane around here.
I usually see 92.
I did see high octane gas when I was visiting Boston.

Will it make a difference?
I always wondered what the difference was.
I do understand that it is good to use the expensive stuff one in
every four fills
to clean the engine.

As has already been said, using a higher octane gas will do NOTHING for your engine. It doesn't clean it. It doesn't recharge it. It doesn't do anything magical or mystical.
Higher octane is designed for engines with higher compression. The kicker is that now adays these higher compression vehicles will self-adjust their timing to compensate for lower octane gas.
Anyway, when I was 18 I thought that 92 Octane was higher quality gasoline, which is what I imagine most Americans think. In reality, however, it isn't.
Unless you have turbo-charged your n600 or maybe dropped in a honda b-series engine, I would not use anything lower than the lowest octane gas...
unless you enjoy wasting money.

I wonder if it really makes a difference in modern engines? I really don't know.
I don't really see a difference in how my Jeep runs depending on what I put in the tank.
I pretty much just burn the cheap stuff full-time.
