Default 87 or 91
Can 87 fuel be used in a 02 freelander or is 91 recommended. In the manual it says 87 is ok is it better to go with the 91 anyways?

For all the Freelander motor issues, I would run only hi octane.

I went with 89 on my first fill up and got 18 mpg, put premium 91 on the 2nd fillup.

Let us know the difference the high octane makes with your mileage.
Thanks
