Default Just dont get on the car really hard on full boost etc while you have
the 87 in there. It should not hurt anything.

Default samething as California fuel, should not be too much of an issue
just don't rev the engine and drive it mostly highway to get it out of the tank.

Default Closed loop control systems sure are nice, aren't they?..driving nice and easy might be advisable...
...that salad oil fuel probably causes preignition with the slightest boost!...I would'nt be overly concerned though audi225.

Cheers

Default Please flat-bed the car immediately to your dealer where the tank will be drained and refilled...
...with proper octane fuel. Warranty will not be voided but charge for service is fairly significant ($250). Warranty will be immediately voided on second occurance.

Could you arrange to have them bang my car into something while it's there? :-/

why not just drill a hole in the tank, or turn the car upside down to drain it?
