Is it necessary to use 95-octane gasoline for the Bora?

It is not necessary to use 95-octane gasoline for the Bora. The Bora can run on 92-octane gasoline, and the fuel grade suitable for the vehicle is listed on the label inside the fuel tank cover. The gasoline grade represents the octane rating of the gasoline. For example, 92-octane gasoline consists of approximately 92% isooctane and 8% n-heptane. Since isooctane has better anti-knock properties and n-heptane has poorer anti-knock properties, a higher octane rating indicates better anti-knock performance of the gasoline. The gasoline grade has no relation to the cleanliness of the fuel. Therefore, refueling according to the engine's compression ratio or the requirements specified in the vehicle's user manual is more scientific and economical, and it allows the engine to perform at its best efficiency. If you have mixed different gasoline grades, you can remove the fuel tank, drain all the fuel, including the fuel in the fuel pump. Then, clean the fuel tank, fuel lines, combustion chamber, and replace the fuel filter. Finally, refill with the required gasoline to avoid any harm to the vehicle.
