My sister put regular gas in my frs!

Drive her somewhere (carefully) until the regular gas is gone, get premium gas, leave her there and tell her she can think about what she's done on the walk home.

btw, what is "regular"? in cali we have 87/89/91

Wait.. you guys don't have 93?
In East Coast at least by Tri-State area we have 87, 91, and 93

Nope. We probably have the worst gas/prices in the country. 10% minimum ethanol. But then again some people just use e85. It's the price you pay for 11 months of sunshine per year.

I'd totally trade 93 with that nice sunshine..
It's 8 F now.
BRRRR

Real world experience, what will happen is nothing.

First tank of gas in my car was regular, put in by the dealer on the test drive while I stood there watching not realizing what they were doing. I suppose I could have forced them to drain the tank and refill it, but honestly didn't even think about it until I was at the same station a few days later at the same pump and realized what they had done.

No ill effects after 55,000+ miles.

Pics of sister before we can make an honest assessment.

Go to Autozone, Napa, Pep Boys, or Orielly's and get an octane booster for like $10 bucks if your real paranoid.

In Cali, we don't have 93 so I ran my car on 91 for 15,000 miles before tuning it. Now run a 93 map, which I take a tank of 91 and add a 1/3 to a 1/2 a bottle of octane booster to get it up to the 95-97oct range.

Monitoring for knock on OFT showed less than the stock map this way. If its good for the car or cats, well I'm sure someone will argue me on this, but it is the internet, so people will argue with you on everything with little knowledge.

Or just drive down to Florida like I did. Gas is still 87/91/93, nearly as cheap as it was in NJ, and it's much warmer (although my car did report it was 41F on the way in to work this morning.. perfect time to turn on the heated seats )

I have 12 months of sunshine and both 93 and e85 in florida... .

If had 87 in the car id just take a road trip to burn it all off. Steady cruising speed should be very low load.
