So, 99 seems to be fine. ________________________________________ My car park: '96 Sigma Blue XSi6 '98 Diablo Red GTi6 '99 Onyx Black S16 All RFS powered! Plus various other Peugeots

They say it burns cleaner, has more of the good additives. At the same time running on LPG since 2017 (even higher octane) for low-medium loads without problems.
