Should Chevrolet Cavalier Use 92 or 95 Octane Gasoline?
1 Answers
Chevrolet Cavalier uses 92 octane premium unleaded gasoline. Using other fuels may cause knocking noise, poor-quality fuel, etc., which can lead to reduced engine operating efficiency and affect driving performance. This condition may disappear immediately after the engine warms up. The difference between 92 and 95 octane gasoline: Different compositions: 92 octane gasoline consists of 0.92 isooctane and 0.08 n-heptane, while 95 octane consists of 0.95 isooctane and 0.05 n-heptane. The reason why 95 octane gasoline is slightly more expensive is due to its higher proportion of isooctane; Different power: 95 octane gasoline with higher octane rating is suitable for engines with higher compression ratios. Methods to save fuel: Smooth and steady driving: Compared to braking and accelerating, driving at a constant speed is more fuel-efficient. The economical speed for general cars is between 60-80km/h; Appropriately reduce the use of in-car electrical equipment, such as high-power devices like air conditioning and seat heating; Appropriately increase tire pressure. The pressure can be increased by 0.2bar according to the load, but generally should not exceed the specified pressure when fully loaded.
