Buy some octane booster or buy 91/93 and fill it up .
Or go to the nearest fire station and they will pump it out for you.

Your car just depreicated by 99%. Better sell it to me for $250. Do it fast, because it will start corroding and I won't want it anymore.

Besides the chirp, should not do any damage.
Now if it was diesel, whole different story.

You'll be fine.

Just drive it under 3K RPM's with octane booster.

Diesel pump shouldn't fit into the receiver on the gas tank.

you would need so much octane booster to make a difference. Just drive it easy until empty.

Mine came with a sticker in the fuel door that says to use premium. I don't know the exact wording but there is a sign that says to use higher octane already.
