Exactly what it recommends: 91 octane or higher (premium).

I wonder about the so called top tier gas companies. It seems they want you to spend more money i really don't think it really helps. Chevron, 76, shell are expensive. What is wrong using 91octane arco, sams, hell safeway grocer store chain gas and raley's grocery store chain gas?

They have done some independent testing and the additives they use definitely make a difference with regards to carbon buildup.
