Idiot filled my car with 87 octane
Idiot filled my car with 87 octane
I ****ing hate New Jersey. Useless, non-english speaking, minimum wage drone filled my car with 18 gallons of regular despite my explicit instructions and the big warning label on the fuel door.
Anything i have to worry about?

Its all in your head!
Not sure i get what you're saying. Knock sensors pull timing to prevent predetonation. If it took several tanks of 87 to do that, what would be the point?

Calm down, OP. Just run it empty and refill. The knock sensor will take care of ignition timing, and you might be a little more sluggish at certain points, not that you would really notice. The car is designed for 91 octane, but it's genuinely not a big deal to run a tank of 87 by accident. If you're really, really worried, a bottle of octane boost might ease your mind.
I hear you about NJ. I really, really don't want someone else pumping gas into my car, but it's a law there, right? Weird.
Non-english speaking minimum wage drone? LOL. There's a word for people like you, buddy. But let's chalk it up to the heat of the moment.

If I ever have to pass through NJ, will make sure to fuel up just before entering the state. It's what, about 200 miles across the length of the state. G is good for at least 400 miles.
Please return your car to the dealership. It's going to explode. 
All jokes aside, you probably lost a few horses up top but were you planning on tracking the car? If it makes you feel any better, you could always fill it with 93 halfway through the tank.
