2002 GT V8; Octane rating?

Craig Detroit · 12-13-2001, 01:07 AM

Anyone know what the 2002 V8 manufacturer's octane recommendation is?

Sure wish the info online was better... they should make a PDF out of the user's manual and post it.

The car is tuned from the factory to use 87-88 octane gas. Unless you mess with the timing via a chip or timing adjuster, using 87gas will be fine.
