Changing octane settings?
cpo, I don't think you'll be disappointed.
Just make sure and adjust for the new gearing.. and as ftruck05 said, run it awhile with the low fuel light on before filling up on 92.. I did almost 35 miles with the light on.. then I couldn't stand it, was afraid of running out, so that's when I filled 'er up with 93..

I ran my 87 octane down to 20 Miles left before empty....
Then I filled her up to the brim with 91 Octane
Changed my tune on my Edge to the Performance tune...
Ran good for a couple hours, then i turned it off and later went out again, it wouldn't crank...
I turn the key and it tried to start, but sputtered and died, then I did it again and it started but BARELY...Then I could totally feel the power was screwed up, and it was all choppy. Turned it off, went back to level 2, and now its running fine, i want to run lv3 though....\
Think that was cause the octane was too low?
Could I fill it up with 93 once i wear it down like 1/4 of a tank to even it out?

I made the switch over to the 92 performance tune once my new gears were installed. Ran it for a little while after the low fuel light came on, but probably could have went a little longer as I barely put 26 gallons in the truck to fill it up. I don't have that seat of the pants feeling I had when I first installed the tunes. I'm hoping that it's just the new gears working themselves in and the truck getting used to the new tune. Don't get me wrong it's an improvement over what it was, but just not as impressed as I thought I would be.

And for sure go back to level 2 for a quarter tank or so (it won't hurt anything to use 91 with the 87 settings) then top off again with 91, back to level 3 and see if it helps..
Not good performance though, regardless..
