I realized after the fact, that I accidentally put in some 87 octane... Complete accident.
I ran half a tank of it when I stalled at a stop sign just after leaving the house.
It would not start back, then I figured it was the fuel pump, so I turned the key to the key-on-engine-off several times to build up pressure and she ran all day yesterday, and this moirning. I then noticed that the fuel milage was drastically lower, so I looked back at my last as reciept, when I noticed I acidentally put in 87 octane at the last fill-up. So I wnet ahead and filled her back up with 93 octane, and am planning on putting some octane boost in there as well.
I have been real easy on her to make sure she didn't get much into the boost...
I was just wondering if there was anything I am not aware of that would cause it to starve for fuel...
I guess I will plan on a fuel pump replacement.
Any recommended sources for good quality stock fuel pump?
BTW, I never got an engine light at all... I will check the codes this weekend to make sure that there are no stored codes....
Thanks for reading!
