Default Regular gas added by mistake - HELP
My neighbor knew of my ethanol fuel disdain. His son topped off my BDR 427 Roush's gas tank with 87 ethanol free fuel. 50% premium 93 and 50% 87 ethanol free is my guess of what is in there.

Can I add octane booster and drive slowly to burn this fuel or should I just drain it out in the spring?

My sidepipes are off because I am sending them off for bigger mufflers. The fuel should not be used until spring but I wanted to set my mind at ease.

My sweet wife brought home a bottle of NOS octane booster. Will this solve my problem? Will this damage my engine?

I know it might be simpler to siphon fuel out and use it elsewhere.

Any thoughts? Merry Christmas!
