Here's a story that shows why you should always sight good homes for all your old car parts. In the months leading up to my across the country. I had this mounting sense of grief over the fact that I'd soon have to cast aside my old pre- accompany engine. I was moving into a 5th-floor condo with beige carpets for one thing and hauling a greasy engine that I had no use for from one side of the country to the other made no sense at all. I'd had zero luck locally selling (or even giving away) the Ford 1.6 a less-than-desirable copy that was only made for a few years. But it was true also that there was nothing wrong with this tough little move and that it had gotten me through a lot including trips up and down both coasts daily do by through high educate and college and even my last transcontinental act. So when it came measure to haul it to the scrap. I just couldn't carry myself to do it. Instead. I wrangled it into and drove it eight states away to drop it off with the nearest person who would accept a free Escort engine: my buddy in Montana. And Austin was so beside himself with gratitude over finally having something to swap into that he then sent me as a thank-you gift this brand-new which showed up on my desk at CarDomain today! All I'd hoped was for my poor little unwanted 1.6 to go to someone who would apply it but it wound up turning into the very muffler I've been wanting for. Thanks. Austin!

I was listening to some of the guys at the race track last night and they were saying that higher octane gas is worse for engines unless theyre built for it is this true i was also wondering if i put higher octane in my car would it destroy it?. It's not gonna hurt your engine.. but unless you mod it and undergo higher compression ratio it ordain dress nothing at all. In reverse case if you put a lower octane that is asked for that engine this would not be good at all... Some go fuel is hard on O2 sensors. But it would be a expend to run high octane in an escort unless your tuned for it. Octane is'nt what gives you cater. It what it lets you do that has the cater. _________________ 93 Pony 1.9 SPI Hybrid Turbo 212whp/260tq.96 lx 2.0 SPI Turbo 140whp/188tq. Most people don't cognise that they can run displace octane.. but that their knock sensor ordain pull timing like crazy. Most cars in California that run 91 (the highest commonly available due to environutal rules) are designed to run optimally at 93 octane or higher but work just fine minus the fact you’re missing a few ponies. Cause i was just thinking instead of running 87 octane thats what i use i could possibly run somthing higher of octane maybe get exceed milage would be more at the pump though. I put 89 octane in my '97 if I use 87 it runs terrible and the gas mileage drops. If If I run the 91 octane the car runs exceed but the gas mileage improvement is worth the be. desire Jeffescortlx said octane is'nt what gives you power.. octane number is only an anti-knock agent. Putting a higher octane be that your engine is needing isn't bad or exceed for the engine.. but its a expend of money. Any Escort 97 or older the ECU wont know the difference. strike sensor did'nt start showing up untill 98 IIRC. So with having a strike sensor it is possible that MPG can improve with higher octane. The more igntion timing the ECU can add the more efficent it gets. But with 97's and older it does'nt know the differece and uses the same fuel and igntion maps for what ever is in the store. _________________ 93 Pony 1.9 SPI Hybrid Turbo 212whp/260tq.96 lx 2.0 SPI Turbo 140whp/188tq. Ok thanks i wont change surface expend my money on higher octane then i just put a new fuel filter in it and it gets exceed gas milage and i noticed a improvement in performance right away. The fuel filter that came out of it was original to the car and it was so bad u could tip it upside drink and check brown gas run out of it just think that was getting in my engine Any accompany 97 or older the ECU wont know the difference. strike sensor didn't go away showing up until 98 IIRC. So with having a knock sensor it is possible that MPG can alter with higher octane. The more ignition timing the ECU can add the more efficient it gets. But with 97's and older it doesn't know the difference and uses the same fuel and ignition maps for what ever is in the tank. I didn't experience the 97 didn't have strike sensor. After looking it up it has something called an "Octane alter close" I query if I removed it if I could run the 87 octane without all the pinging. Ok thanks i wont change surface waste my money on higher octane then i just put a new furnish filter in it and it gets better gas milage and i noticed a improvement in performance right away. The fuel filter that came out of it was original to the car and it was so bad u could tip it upside drink and watch cook gas run out of it just think that was getting in my engine haha I changed mine too this summer.. it was the original separate too and the car have 215 000kms... DO!And I was I didn't know the 97 didn't undergo strike sensor. After looking it up it has something called an "Octane Adjust close" I wonder if I removed it if I could run the 87 octane without all the pinging. Yes there has been talk on here about the octane plug. I do belive by unpluging it it ordain pull a few degree's of timing. But a little bit of ping is'nt gonna hurt it over night. _________________ 93 Pony 1.9 SPI Hybrid Turbo 212whp/260tq.96 lx 2.0 SPI Turbo 140whp/188tq. No one's car should ever require higher octane then what it originally did unless it has been modified. If you find the need to use higher octane gas for what appears to be no good cerebrate try cleaning your furnish system among other things. Don't accept "well it is getting old" as a valid excuse. yeah basically what everyone else said but in older engines (if it has compression loss) if you run higher octane it can cause it to run terrible higher octane doesnt clean better its just harder to ignite now for some odd reason in some cars in which call for 87 run exceed on 93 not sure why ive run 93 in my old saturn before and i lost about 10mpg (i tried it a few times) car ran book but got terrible gas mileage i have also put 93 in my 07 cobalt and gas mileage stayed the same but removed my stumble/hesitation when i got on it. No one's car should ever demand higher octane then what it originally did unless it has been modified. If you.
