hi have been told by a dealer that we have to put 96 petrol in our mazda premacy 2005, is this correct? could we use 91 octane instead? and would it damage engine?
The 2.0L Mazda Premacy 2005 model can run on regular octane (91) whereas with the 2.3L you need to use premium 95 or higher octane fuel. Using a lower octane fuel will cause internal knocking under load which over a prolonged period could cause damage.
Is this the same for 2011 Premacy with 2.0 l engine? Would it be fine with 91 octane?
