Is it better to use 92 or 95 octane gasoline for the Civic?
1 Answers
The Civic's manual and fuel tank cap recommend using 92 octane or higher unleaded gasoline. It is best to use 95 octane gasoline. Here are the reasons for using 95 octane gasoline: 1. The Civic is equipped with a 1.5T turbocharged engine with a relatively high compression ratio. Using 95 octane gasoline will result in better vehicle performance. 95 octane gasoline can better unleash the performance of the turbocharged engine, making the power delivery smoother. 2. Using 92 octane gasoline does not provide the same power effect as 95 octane gasoline. 95 octane gasoline burns more completely, delivers stronger power, and can reduce engine carbon deposits.
