My 1999 Deville Concours, Says right under the fuel gauge to use only Premium. 185,000 miles
My 82 Pace Arrow 454 4 bbl runs better on premium more pep no pinging.48,000 miles
My 1964 deville convert uses Premium/non oxygenated 71,000 miles
I run Premium every tank.
Sorry but I think it makes all the difference.:B
My 2003 325HP Northstar STS said premium fuel but I always used 87 and it ran perfectly fine for the last 60K miles.all smoke and mirrors on newer port injected computer controlled engines
On contrare its all about octane.manual suggest,s(recomends) useing premium fuel(higher octane)I use regular fuel(lower octane)(cheaper to buy)+ still ran perfectly fine so I stick with it(lower octane fuel)The guys 84 454 pace arrow pinged on low octane fuel so he used premium and no pinging(higher octane fuel)
its all about Octane ratings
Now that being said none of this answers the OP question at all
