What happens if you put super unleaded gas in your car?
In some foreign countries, you can get lower octane rated fuels, but if you add these to your car, it may cause ‘knocking’. This is an engine condition that occurs when the fuel/air mixture in the engine’s cylinder head doesn’t burn properly, causing the engine to sound rough, with a pinging noise when it’s running.
Is it worth using premium unleaded?
Whether it’s worth the extra cost is debatable. Certainly, for someone driving a small-to-medium sized engine, using premium fuel regularly is a waste of money. It won’t provide extra power or speed – it just costs you more at the pumps.
What happens if you use unleaded fuel instead of premium?

Does premium fuel give better mileage?

Designed for performance cars with large, powerful engines, premium also helps minimize the risk of preignition inside highly-stressed, hot engine cylinders.
