Can You Add 95 Gasoline After Adding 92 Gasoline to a Car?

No, you cannot. Here is the relevant information: Different grades of gasoline are primarily designed to prevent engine knocking. Mixing them can easily cause knocking in the car's cylinders. Therefore, you should not mix them. Follow the instructions on the car's fuel tank cap, which specifies the recommended gasoline grade. Here is some information about gasoline: 1. 92 gasoline: 92 gasoline has an octane rating of 92 and is suitable for mid-range cars. 2. 95 gasoline: It consists of 95% isooctane and 3% n-heptane. High-compression engines should use high-octane gasoline. Using low-octane gasoline in a high-compression engine can lead to abnormal combustion, causing knocking, increased fuel consumption, and reduced driving power.
