No. The Check Engine Light is on because there is a problem with the emissions system. The only way that the octane fuel you are using could possibly cause the light to come on is if your car requires the use of premium fuel and you were using regular, but this is highly unlikely. Have the ECU scanned to retrieve the code which will tell you what part is being effected. Most auto parts stores will scan your car for free.
Unless your owners manual says that you must use super unleaded gas, you should just use regular unleaded. Otherwise you are just wasting your money and possibly harming your engine. super unleaded petrol has a higher octain rate than unleaded. check your owners manual for the optimal rate you should be using for the engine.
Super unleaded fuel won't damage the engine. The engine doesn't need super unleaded so all you're doing is wasting money to buy more expensive fuel. Some argue that the super unleaded fuels tend to have better additives packages...that might be worth considering if you want to justify running super unleaded.
It will be fine.
yes it can
The only difference in regular unleaded fuel and super unleaded is the octane rating is higher in super unleaded fuel. Burning super unleaded would not cause your vehicle to die.
Yes
Yes, but your engine will cut back on power. The computer is designed to monitor the octane level and perform accordingly.
There is no risk in mixing super unleaded gas and regular unleaded gas. Super is just given to the name of a gasoline because of cleaning agents and octane added to the gas not because the gas is completely different.
Yes. I put super unleaded in my 02 v6 mustang also.
It means you need to check the engine over, something is wrong.
Not necessarily, however if you want to get the best out of your Trans Am you need to use super unleaded. Thanks.
being a super duty i assume this is a diesel engine. diesel trucks have 2 batteries. did you check both batteries. then check all fuses if it is a diesel engine there will be 2 batteries .did you check both batteries
