Use exactly what your owner's manual states. If it says 89 or 91 octane then do not use 87 octane. Using a lower octane that required may cause pre-detonation or what is commonly called (Pinging). Pinging may be harmful and may cause engine damage. Bottom line is to use no lower or higher octane fuel that the engine was designed to run on. Using a lower octane can cause engine damage, and using a higher octane is a waste of money that will provide not benefits whatsoever, and is nothing more than a myth.

If you're using 91+ octane fuel then theres no point if your car is stock.It IS possible its still knocking even on 91+ but if you're never push your car, no need to worry. If you ARE hard on the throttle, using 93/94 octane would be ideal unless you can get someone or something to scan.?

Should you use 93 octane in a 1999 Lincoln continental?
I asked the Lincoln Mercury dealer about this and they said that for optimum performance I should use a minimum of 91 octane but that lower grades right down to 87 octane regular can be used. When octane grades lower than 91 are used, the ECC (engine control computer) will automatically detune the engine to prevent knock although you will have a slight power loss. Using an octane grade lower than 91 will not hurt the engine.
