The problem is the altitude, everybody in Denver is High!Well I stayed at a friends place in Del Norte - he has a Buick with the blown 3.8l - I might add a newer Buick because he ran 85 octane in his former blown Buick and got a nice hole in a piston. Now he told me he bought a new truck, but his wife shows me the GM commercial where he bought the 2 new GMs - envoy and silverado, and she loves the pickup, , so the new truck in the garage is a Ford Platinum F series with the 6.2 liter twin turbo powerstroke - 980 lbs/ft of torque.
He was kind and told me he liked my Ranger. 980 lbs of torque - OMG.
On the Hyundai board some guy in denver posted the dealer told him 85 octane will work just fine in his 2.0T , not a question of if but when that the engine gives it up, the Hyundai Theta II engine is about as fragile as it gets when it comes to durability, they've replaced well over 250k of them.
