[QUOTE="B E N, post: 1508400, member: 33355"] Octane doesn't necessarily effect energy density unless the octane is being boosted by ethanol, in consumer terms its just an expression of detonation resistance. These trucks are designed to run on 10% ethanol low grade fuel, pig iron -- not race car. You also don't need any sort of soldering kit, the whole thing can be done with a small butane torch and the instructions from the ford kit. Just wrap the wires with solder, melt with torch, slide heat shrink over, shrink with torch. No fancy torch either, I carry a [URL='https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00G9ERJVO/?tag=fordraptorforum-20']cheap cigar lighter [/URL] with some electrical tape and solder wrapped around it as my electrical repair kit. The added benefit is if I want a cigar I have the torch in my console :P. [/QUOTE]
