I have just bought a beautiful 1996 Escort Cossie. The seller advised me to use the premium unleaded only, ie super unleaded, optimax etc. I'm not a tight wad by any means but just wanted to know is this necessary for everyday school runs and round the town driving? I would appreciate any comments on this matter.

not 100 perecnt neccessary as long as you never hold it in high gears

Is it standard or tuned? It might need the higher ron if it's been tweaked

depends how you drive it really.

personally i would never put anything other than super in mine

I disagree...

If you want to avoid the cosworth engine build bill why increase the chances of it blowing up by scrimping on the fuel you use.


Always use super/optimax/ultimate

Only in an emergency would I use somet else and then never ever bring it on boost- ever.

If the previous owner always used SUL, I suggest you use it too. I have always put SUL in mine.
