Higher octane fuel - Toyota Yaris Forums

Plain and simple...the yaris is designed to run on 87 octane gas(REG) and running 93(premium) yes we have 93 here, could actually cause poor performance and may actually damage your motor. Read your owners manual and use the recomended fuel type. MORE is not allways better. I would just stick to the book and make sure the dealer dont have an excuse to void my waranty.
