found this interesting. dave posted sometime ago about the use of 91 oct and it not being ness with a relatively stock engine. the other day i put 89 (midgrade) in, just to see what would happen, and the exact opposite of what i expected occured. the tach showed a slight increase in rpm and i could note it by ear as well. nothing was touched on the linkage. no change in perfromance(seat of the pants). next time i'll put some 91 back in and see if the idle drops. i sure don't mind saving a few bucks every fillup.
