Okay I've told my story about having a messed up Jeep, taking it back, buying a different one, and LOVING every second with the new one.
I'm wondering this:
Right now I give the truck 87 octane, and I've been reading a lot of things online about people hearing a lot of things with the engine with this octane. I do hear some weird noises, and I want to know how much performance-wise I will gain from going to 89 grade?
Will I feel a HP/TQ gain?
Will it reduce engine noise?
Will I hurt the engine at all by mixing the gas (non-empty tank), or will it cause harm to the engine/truck in any way? With the first Jeep, I filled it up with 89 after it had 87 in the tank and about 5 miles later at 60 MPH it blew gaskets, etc. So will 89 hurt it?
The last question is the most important. Sorry if the questions sound dumb, but I'm only 16... Thanks for the help-- as always.
