Default RE: Tune question

Assuming you get 19 miles per gallon and so put in 14.7 gal.
92.5 Octane. Close enough in my opinion as long as you dont have a
custom tune with deactivated knock sensors.

Just a heads up for next time. Run it down to 20 mi and put in 3 gal.
Run it back down to 20 mi and fillup. That will put you at 92.9 Oct.

on a side note
I too went to my 87 tune for winter, but the mileage was worse than my 93....
so I put some 93 in , preparing to switch back, but my 87 tune gets great mileage on 93 weird!
Different octane gasolines have a differing amount of oxygenates and need to be tuned for different AFR.
The93 octanebasically leans ther car out a little.
