And we certainly see a decrease in NOx without a significant increase in HC or CO. So, in some instances, buying a slightly higher octane fuel can both increase performance and help pass a failed emissions test. Generally, yes, spending money on higher octane than your owner's manual recommends is a waste of money. But sometimes ethanol tilts the scales. Of the 6 vehicles I've owned, 2 benefited from slightly higher octane-the other 4 suffered.
Different kinds of fuels have different combinations of hydrocarbons. Isooctane, or âoctane,â is resistant to the spontaneous exploding, so the higher the octane, the less chance there is to experience this knocking in the engine. If you look at the gas pumps at any gas station, the âPremiumâ fuel has a higher octane level on it. The premium octane is usually going to sit at around 91, while the regular gasoline is right around 85 to 87.
