Just curious, how would a higher octane clean your engine? (assuming no
special additives)  I can understand it running better, my thought process
would say that if it runs noticeably better on the higher octane then you
should use it all the time.

Inquiring minds want to know.

My engine is at ten to one compression so I always use premium fuel.  I
don't have any problems with ping or detonation.  Once in  rare while I will
go to the fuel depot and get five gallons of 112 octane racing fuel and add
the to the tank and then fill it with premium.  When I do that it really
cleans up the way my engine runs.

Best regards,
Tom
