What to Do If You Accidentally Fill Your Car with 92 Instead of 95 Octane Gasoline?
1 Answers
It's not a big deal if you accidentally fill your car with 92 octane gasoline once or twice, but you should avoid mixing different octane levels for a long time. Here is some extended information about gasoline: 1. Cars have specified gasoline octane ratings, so it is not recommended to mix 95 and 92 octane gasoline. 2. The mixtures of 92 and 95 octane gasoline are essentially the same, but the difference lies in the proportion of their mixtures. Long-term mixing of different octane gasoline can reduce anti-knock properties, causing the engine to self-ignite before the designated ignition timing. This may lead to ignition system confusion, engine shaking, and in severe cases, damage to the car engine.
