youll be fine as long as you dont hammer it. Listen for knock and reduce peddle as necessary. Under load is when you can damage the engine
I filld up my tank today, 89 midgrade, so ebcasue I have to run 91 premium, is my only choice to run my tank dry by then?

Aww dang I was just waiting to get it to tear it up but I will abide by my best ability, but it should be an outurnity to hear what actual knocking/pinging is becasue I cannot really image what it actually sounds like...but until my next fill up, what kind of damage can it do?
oh and btw, the infamous jeff replied, sweet haha
Add octane booster from any parts store, should bump your octane to required level.

alrite, thanks, and could you reccomend a certain one:

(zip 90638)
booster that are supposed to increase octane work like buying interest points on a loan, 1 point = .01 not 1.0
better to wait to refill.

EAT chips require 91 octane, you could use what you can of the 89, then top it off with 93 ...non scientific calculation is:
1/2 tank 89 + 1/2 tank 93=91
It may take some time for the computer to adapt to the EAT chip so I wouldn't hammer it too hard at first.
I just replaced my battery which caused a reset, it may be purely psycho but it seemed like it was a little sluggish for the first 50 miles or so.
Probably fake off ebay, sure hope not.
While we're on the subject, Mark, your table of applicants is a little confusing (maybe to just me) which chip would I buy for the '94 540iA?

It's hard to contact you Mark. A couple of ppl and I tried to contact you through email, pm, and posts... I haven't purchased one yet, pm me... thanksOriginally Posted by MarkD
