What to Do If 95 Octane Gasoline is Added to 92 Octane?

One or two times might be fine, but if mixed for a long time, the vehicle may experience knocking. You may feel the engine lacks power and hear a clear knocking sound. In such cases, the engine should be checked promptly. Related information is as follows: 1. If a car designed for low-octane gasoline accidentally uses high-octane gasoline, it's like eating fine food occasionally after being used to coarse food. Generally, this has no negative impact on the car. High-octane gasoline has a higher octane rating than low-octane gasoline and burns more completely, so the vehicle's performance in terms of power will be better. 2. If a car that normally uses high-octane gasoline accidentally uses low-octane gasoline, such as adding 92 octane instead of the original 98 octane, attention is needed. When high-octane gasoline is replaced with low-octane gasoline, the vehicle may experience insufficient power, increased fuel consumption, and in some cases, the engine warning light may come on, or the engine may even stall and fail to start. If the difference between the accidentally added gasoline grades is significant, the owner should promptly drain the gasoline from the fuel tank and clean the tank and fuel system to minimize damage to the engine caused by the lower-quality fuel.
