Our mid-grade is 89 and truthfully I don't remember what the super is. Probably 91.

I don't think I ever posted it but I did replace the cap and rotor as much as it pained me to spend the money (they were spendy). That made quite an improvement in driveability but I still have a stumble or bog on acceleration. I'm hoping the filter helps a little with that and it needed changed anyway.

One of the challenges I had teaching my wife about winter driving is 4WD can get you going very well but does nothing to help you when it comes time to stop! She works at a place with a very steep driveway that has a 'Y' at the bottom. Miss the 'Y' and you can end up in the lake! Make the 'Y' and you could still end up in the boss' livingroom!

On my 97, the clamp had completely rusted away and ate a hole in the side of the fuel filter can that became a pinhole leak. The fuel lines were also like swis cheese and rusted thru at each place where a clamp held the tubing in place.

I bought a 25 foot roll of tubing and replaced it all and relocated the new fuel filter along the frame using rubber hose to connect it.
