While i was tracking down my hesitation issue. I was only getting 95-110 miles per tank..... now Im at 194 miles and im just under 1/4 tank. And I've been driving little hard to feel the rev range. Im just glad I have a work van. No commuting for me. I FIND excuses to drive my mx-3 any chance I get lol

Don't know if this is the best place to ask but I cannot find the answer..
What does Mazda say the required octane is for our k8?

87 is fine for K8

That's what I normally use is 87. Filled up today. 23.2mpg. Mix of driving.
im not that worried about mpg since I don't commute in my mx-3 for work. Ill probably stick with 87. Might try 89 and see if I notice any difference. Im not looking for power either. Just want to feed him what he wants lol
