What will happen if you put regular gas in a premium car?
Using regular gas in a premium car designed for high-octane fuel can lead to reduced performance, such as lower horsepower and acceleration. The engine's knock sensors may compensate for the lower octane by retarding ignition timing, which can result in decreased fuel efficiency and potential engine knocking over time. While occasional use of regular gas may not cause immediate damage, consistently using it can lead to long-term issues with engine performance and durability.

The use of Premium is a waste of money and provides no benefit whatsoever. Of course it it is a Diesel, then use the correct Diesel.

Is it OK to use regular gasoline in a high-compression engine?
My advice is to use exactly what the manufacture recommends on any older car. Using 87 octane in an engine that requires 91 octane will cause pre-detonation (pinging) and will eventually cause engine damage on older vehicles. On newer vehicles where the manufacture says, premium fuel recommended you can use 87 octane fuel. The fuel management system will adjust for the lower octane fuel. You will have a slight loss of power but no other problems. On vehicles were the manufacture say's premium fuel required you must use premium or you will damage the engine over time.
