On Tuesday I came very close to running out of gas, but luckily found a station that had just been filled.

Well, tonight I'm not under a 1/2 gallon, and I've found 3-4 stations tonight that have 87 ONLY!

What do I do if I have NO other choice but to fill my car with 87? Do I add an octane booster to try and offset the issue or what?

Thanks in advance....

 

You can use it. Your car will compensate for the lower octane. I would't run it in the long term but you can fill it with a bit and just get premium later.

 

or put in the octane booster.

 

why doesn't anyone ever think to call their local Honda dealer for advice?

 

LOL, do you realize what you just said?

 

 

 

87 is fine in your s2000, the ecu can compensate. I'm running 87 thanks to the gas shortage. I think the car is actually running stronger if you ask me, definitely not running poorly at least.

 

youll be fine. just grab premium when you can find it.

 

You simply can't find premium. I sat in line for thirty minutes today to get a tank of 87 and then went to walmart and bought the last of their octane booster. It's getting pretty ridiculous.
