To loosen the distributor hold-down bolt on a 1993 Roadmaster, use a socket wrench with the appropriate size socket, usually 5/16" or 10mm, depending on the specific engine. If the bolt is too tight, a breaker bar can provide additional leverage. Alternatively, applying penetrating oil and letting it sit for a few minutes can help loosen the bolt before attempting again. Always ensure to work carefully to avoid damaging the distributor or surrounding components.

I have used regular "87" octane gas in my 1993 Buick Roadmaster for 7 years and it runs like a top. I don't know the gas mileage as my odometer doesn't work, but it seems to be OK.
No, the 1993 Buick Roadmaster does not have the OptiStart ignition system. Instead, it is equipped with a traditional distributor ignition system. The OptiStart system was featured in some later GM vehicles with the LT1 engine but was not available in the Roadmaster of that year.
