There's a sticker beside my fuel cap than says minimum octane to put into
the tank is 91.

In reading the discussions of the various mpg averages, I noticed that
many of the vans are using a higher octane. Should the 2.1 engine be
running on the higher octane or is it ok to run on the regular 87? And
btw I'm getting 17.76 mpg local and 20.75 mpg highway.
