what kind of fuel?
Premium is suggested but is it required???
any folks having issue due to putting 87 unleaded gas? thank for your input! |
You don't say S or not ...
An S requires premium for peak/proper performance , I was forced to run regular and the car ran horribly and got crappy gas mileage 10 mpg below normal... this was quiet te subject on several other mini boards ... I talked to te service manager and he stated he can instantly tell the mini's that have had premium all their lives , because the valves ect are spotless , while regular gas runners are full of deposits and crud ... The way I look at it , it's $2/per fillup versus $6K for an engine |
Jees. If you want to use regular gas, but a Honda or something! Saving $2.00 buys a mechanics time.
|
that's pretty nasty response for a question....
I hope not all are like you in here. anyway, I think I WILL get a Honda or something as you preached since I am looking for fuel economy car with a look. If Mini is that sensitive to type of fuel, Mini is not it. Thanks for your input and sorry I posted this 'dumb' question. |
Nasty? Rather thin skinned chap, isn't he mate.
btw, will you be my friend? |

One tank, short term, no harm. It's the long term use that could cause damage.
