I'm guessing the Mach is the same as GTs in that it takes standard 87 octane

Actually no... from the factory they are supposed to run on 93 octane. I asked this question a while back and someone enlightened me on this.

all 4vs run on premium because of the higher compression (ex 03-04, those need it because of the super charger)

I have to go into the next county (Goochland) because supposidly they don't use ethenol in their fuel.
But our Mach's were meant to run on 91 octane (MINIMUM) premium fuel. I run on 93 octane though
because thats all thats around here.
