Miguel Pengel on Instagram: "Most people think “higher octane = more power,” but that’s not what the number at the pump actually means. Octane rating is a measure of a fuel’s resistance to auto-ignition under pressure — essentially how hard you can squeeze and heat the mixture before it spontaneously detonates. High-octane fuels are formulated with hydrocarbons that have greater thermal and chemical stability, so the combustion event starts only when the spark plug tells it to. Why does this mat
