Re: [DML] Taking Delorean Out of Storage

Hi
Here it goes one more time!
91 octane by European standard - research method. It is equal to EXACTLY 87
in the US - research + motor / 2 method. You can see it on every gas pump.
It says 87 octane rating R+M/2.
To all of you in the US - use the 87 octane fuel. By using anything higher
you are just wasting money and actually hurting the engine.
To all you in Europe - use 91 octane fuel (if you can find it).
DO NOT use anything with lower rating and TRY NOT to use anything with
higher rating.

I hope this helps
