unleaded or premium

I have a 2000 mustang GT and was wondering whether to run premium gasoline or just regular unleaded? thanks.

if you dont have any mods or reason to run premium UNLEADED... then stick to what the car manf. recommend... it wont help you ONE IOTA....

don't run premium unless you have timing advanced, you have pinging, or you have installed a performance tune (predator, SCT, X-Cal)

put it in 1st and let the clutch out, and then pull up on the clutch with your hand untill it clicks, this should adjust the clutch enough to lessen the problem
