Using regular gas in an engine designed for premium can be detrimental over time. Premium engines are typically built for higher compression ratios, requiring gas with a higher octane level to prevent premature ignition, known as knocking. While modern vehicles have engine management systems that can adjust to lower octane levels by retarding the ignition timing, this can lead to decreased performance and efficiency. Furthermore, consistent use of lower octane fuel in a premium engine can potentially cause long-term damage. However, an occasional use of regular gas in a pinch shouldn't cause immediate harm, thanks to these adaptive measures. To maintain optimal performance and avoid potential damage, it's best to follow the manufacturer's fuel recommendation for your vehicle.
