I know that the town car uses 87 but people say That It will keep the engine clean if you use the 93. I have been putting 93 since I bought the car new from the dealership. I just read an article that says that if you use 93 in town car, carbon builds up in your engine. so what gas do I use in my town car now. Why did the 1998-2000 use 91 gas. I have a 2002 town car.
 
i dont know about newer ones but i know that my 90 only runs on 93... i always use shell v-power if i can cause ive used gas from cheap gas stations that made my car run like :q:q:q:q...
 
shell gas always makes cars run like :q:q:q:q.

im not sure... supposedly the 01-newer tc's can be run on 87.

Ive never heard anything bad about using 93 - but if you use 87 it will affect performance

anytime i use shell gas my mpg suffers by about 2. same story with 3 different vehicles. both my town cars and my moms truck.

if it works for you, then keep using it.
 
so what do you think is the best gas out there if you think shell makes them suff i like the v power couse
of the cleaner it has
but i don,t like BP i think BP makes it suffer
 
QuikTrip
Chevron
Conoco
Phillips
76
Shell
Entec Stations
MFA Oil Company

ok so these are the ten top gasses right
i yous Shell
Bp is not on here
and Bp is Amoco right
76 hasn,t bean around in Ohio since like th 80s
and i havn,t heard off the rest of these stations so
where do you get these other gasses from
 
that right 8 then what happend to 10 there where saposed to be ten
 
If your engine doesn't ping you're using the right octane fuel and the right kind. Quit worrying, no gas is perfect.
