At the time of recharging gasoline in a car, sometimes there is doubt about which one does it carry? Magna (green) or premium (red).
You should know that all vehicles have A way to identify the type of gasoline they should use.
What gasoline does my car use?
In Mexico there are two types of gasoline according to their octane. The Magna, identifiable by the green color the dispatchers guns, is 87 octane while the premium, or red, is 92 octane.
What does this mean? Octane is the amount of pressure that gasoline supports before generating combustion. This is important, because each engine is designed to generate the combustion cycle at a certain point, depending on the type of gasoline it requires.

In case of using wrong gasoline, there could be effects on the detonation time of the engine, as well as mismatches in its components. Therefore, inside the gas lid there is a picture that indicates the gasoline that you should use.
If this legend mentions that it uses fuel 87 followed by the Ron letters, it is because you should use the “green” gasoline. On the contrary, if a 92+ is mentioned it is important to resort to “red” gasoline. The acronym are those that refer to the octane we use in Mexico, so it specifies the type of fuel to use.
Another way to know this is because of the type of food that your car may or may not have. Usually, Turbo and High Compression engines must use Premium gasoline, since they are designed for the qualities of greater octane. Aspired motor vehicles, for the most part, use less octane because they were designed.

It is important to clarify that the type of gasoline is not linked to how new or old is your car, nor will it give you additional power. Simply keep the mechanical qualities of your engine for longer, together with the maintenance services required in a timely manner.
