Octane booster into Mercedes gas tank filled with regular unleaded?

Question

my boyfriend just filled my mercedes to the brim with regular unleaded into my Mercedes C230K, when i was told to only use super unleaded into my car.

what should i do? can i just put an octane booster to undo what he did? i just purchased an octane booster from pep boys; should i add that to my gas tank? please help!

Answer 1

with octain booster you're suposed to put it in b4 u fill ur tank up, having regular unleaded will mainly only cause ur car to run with less power and more lag if u kno what i mean, when u fill up next get some cylinder cleaner and put that in ur tank and give it a lil thrash to clear your engine then everything should be fine..

Answer 2

Add 2 bottles and drive it easy for a while > And keep adding premium fuel at 3/4> It will run ruff for a while> Then clear up> Don't push it or drive hard till the gas is used up>

Answer 3

Who told you to only use super unleaded ?

It may make things a little less responsive, but it is cheaper.

It will not harm the engine in any way.

Answer 4

its not going to hurt anything to drive it with regular in it.. would be a waste of money  to add anything to it... every car made will run on all type of gas its just what they run better on or how many miles one gets to a type or brand of.. you have nothing to worry about .. its just recommend for best performance and mileage will not hurt anything
