Default Oh well, just drive it gently till it's gone, then put 91 or better in...
87 won't hurt it, unless it's really hot, and you ask it for full power. the knock sensor will pull back ignition timing to protect the engine.

He put 5 dollars in... I figured I'd just drive slow, rev high and burn it out really quickly.

Default go to paint store, buy a few gallons of Toluene <-- (sp)
107 +87 = something above 91.

Default Just leave it running till it's gone.. If there's only 5 bucks worth,that's what, 3 gallons max?
What are you worried about?

Default And despite this, you let him drive your car?
I only let one of my friends drive my car. He's a fellow auto-xer/good driver.
