Helge Ruchelski Posted May 13, 2014 Report Share Posted May 13, 2014 I'm planing a 300 mile road trip with my Super Snake, and I called all the gas stations along the way and no one has 93 octane available. The highest is 91. As far as I know my Snake runs only on 93 or higher which I have available here at home from Chevron. Should I attempt to run 91? Is octane booster safe to use? Thanks for your advice! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twobjshelbys Posted May 13, 2014 Report Share Posted May 13, 2014 Depends on where you are going. 91 is as high as you will get at higher altitudes. Generally, high altitudes have gas with 2 points less than sea level. Also, the ECU will compensate at normal driving behaviour. You are good down to 87/89 as long as you are just driving at highway speeds and not trying to drag race. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimmy Sak Posted May 14, 2014 Report Share Posted May 14, 2014 I drove my SS over 5000 miles last month. Many stations east of the mississippi only have 91....I ran it with no additives and had no issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Helge Ruchelski Posted May 15, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 15, 2014 Thats what I ended up doing with no problems...I was afraid of putting any additive in the tank. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimC Posted May 18, 2014 Report Share Posted May 18, 2014 Get some torco. Go to their web site. The stuff really work which is why you can't buy it in a store.. It is nice to have on trip just for piece of mind, just in case in a pinch got some weak gas or just want that extra power.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
