But I do enjoy the off the wall theories like engines taking tanks of fuel to adjust to octane.....
The real engine gurus are those that know more than the manufacturer.
They know the owners manual is full of wrong statements that are to be ignored:S
As I said in the previous threads, it is not a matter of saying you know more than the manufacturer, but rather your perception of what the manufacturer is stating here. One may perceive that Ford is stating that you have to use premium fuel when towing while others percieve what the manual states is that you can use it if you want more power, but it is not necessary to engine longevity.
If you look at all the owners manual for Ford, they state the same thing for all of their multi-fuel engines that use cam phasers and direct injection that can adjust time on the fly. Heck, they even state the same for engines they don't have direct injection like the 6.2L and I would bet that they would say the same for the new 7.3L gas engine.
