Hi guys,

Just got my firest Camaro and loving it. Unfortunateley it came without the owners handbook. I need to know wether to use high 98 octane unleaded or regular unleaded, can somebody please tell me. Also does anyone know where I can get a handbook from, 2001 3.8.

Cheers.

Yep regular is fine but a higher octane will make it run better if you can afford it. ;)

plain 95 regular is sufficient for the car to run on the high octane spark tables so it will be fine :D
