89 octane (labeled at the pumps as the minimum octane rating) is to feed
the JET II and see if I get better performance out of my 2001 4.7 -vs- the
87 octane (also labled at the pumps as 87 being the minimum octane rating)
that Dodge recommends for a stock 4.7
I forget what JET says I should use other than high octane.
