Re: [DML] Type of fuel to use

["robert parker" <roberthparker@xxxx>]

The owner's manual for the "American" DMC recommends using 87 Octane fuel. 
The "European" DMC owner's manual recommends a different Octane, as their 
ratings are computed differently "across the pond". Fill'er up with 87 
Octane, and Drive Stainless. Robert VIN 6924

Hi,

I am a new prospective owner of a DeLorean, before I buy, I'm
gathering all info I can. One question comes to mind, I know the
manual and several sites say to use 91 Octane fuel, only thing close
to it is 93, and that does get expensive. Can 87 or 89 Octane be
used with no ill effects? I'm told how the Europeans and how the U.S.
rates gasoline are two different things, any truth to this?

Thanks.
