question for XXXblakeXXX
And I am not trying to be a smart ***..legit question

You stated that low octane (87) burns slower then lets say a higher octane (93).
I thought it was the other way around?

When we advance are timing on a cars,....example from stock 10 degrees btc and advance it to 16 degrees btc wouldn't you need gas that burns slower?

I thought when we purchased a higher octane fuel we were getting a gas that would not pre-ignite and burn a little slower to allow the piston to reach t.d.c to fire???

If I am wrong then cool, I stand corrected, but it has been a f-up day for me and nothin seems right. lol
Thanks
