Earlier I started a thread on gas. What kind should I put in my tank?
Everyone basically said, 87 is what you need. I just got my 914 and I was out and bought some gas today. And I dutifully chose 87. While I was pumping my gas, though, I looked down and there I saw a decal, in german, which read to the effect of "minimum 91 octane". So what gives? Which is better? 87 or 91? Thanks, david |
