97 RON
Hi since getting my scooby a couple of months ago i have been running it on 97 now to start with it was abit rough but now its fine! i was just wondering if this might have done any damage, as when we picked it up it had been sat with jap fuel in it, an then we just used 97 with no booster? could it still be causing damage?? I'm a bit unsure wheather to use octane booster or not as i'm told most only use it for days out???
