Supra Stalling

[RCAttack]

My Newly bought 89 Supra Turbo is now stalling. The guy i purchased from said he ran 93 octane gas since the engine was rebuilt 15,000 miles ago. I put 87 octane gas in it and it doesn't run correctly now. Could this octane change cause the engine to stall?

Thanks

i dont think i would make it stall, unless its bad gas. By the way it is a bad idea to run anything less than 91... ive learned that the hard way...

Does he have any tune on it or devices? have you checked for codes?

The only thing ive changed is the gas so that has to be it.

Any mods to the car that you know of?

Don't be cheap, put the highest octane you can put into it (93 or 91).

When does it stall? How does it stall?

Mods and how hard did you run it with 87?

low gas will cause it stall
i ran 87 and i stalled between shifts

Problem Solved.... I guess a car runs better with gas in it........Gas Gauge dosen't work
