Bad idea. Most cars that are Premium Only are designed to take about 92 octane fuel at the lowest. The car will, in fact, run with super unleaded gas but it will create damage to your engine in the long-run. And if low octane gas is used frequently, it can greatly reduce the life of your car.

What kind of gas should you put into the 1994 Lexus Es300 regular middle grade or premium?

Use exactly what the owner's manual states. If you do not have one, you can obtain one from your dealer or a salvage yard. This is word for word what it says in my manual: Fuel selection: Use only UNLEADED fuel, Research Octane No 91 (Octane Rating 87) or higher. For improved vehicle performance, the use of Premium unleaded gasoline with a Research Octance No of 96 (Octane Rating 91) or higher is recommended.

Does a Land Rover require premium gas?

Try regular if it doesn't "ping" excessively you should be OKAnswerTry regular if it doesn't "ping" excessively you should be OKANSWER: Only if you like walking. It will ping and bang, and if you continiously use regular unleaded gas, Its going to blow your engine up! When it says to use premium gas in a Land Rover, you should take it exactly for what it says. AND NO YOU CAN NOT USE REGULAR GAS AND ADD OCTANE BOOSTER TO IT!! It causes excessive engine stress and will cause nothing but problems. The land rover engine is designed to run on a higher combustion ratio than most vehicles and using regular unleaded will not allow the air to fuel ratio to be sustained.
