what did you say ?

"octane is slower burning" ? what octane. Lower ? Higher ? Lower octane right ?

you say "octane reduces compression combustion ?" so you need less compression to combust///?

higher or lower reduces compression compustion..lower ..right ?

sorry i am not specific to your particular car.

i sure would like to understand this octane thing. I read so many conflicting things.
