No, it is not possible. If they tell you that you are getting 92 octane, they must be lying!

my gas station pumps out 87, 89, 93 and 102 or 104 (i forget).
you can get 104+ octane but you gotta bring your own cantainer.

never seen 92 before....

Race Trac and the ghetto gas stations have 92 as the premium. Some Sunocos up north have 94. I've seen 85, 86, 87, 89, 91, 92, 93, 94, 100, 110

92 used to be available here at the pumps of cali.
but they switch to 91 to bring the price down, maybe they forgot to change the label. although they switch 2 years ago.

There is a sunoco not too far from me that sells 100 and 105... Just about every sunoco near me has 94. Actually, you can goto the sunoco site and search for locations that sell 94, 100, and 105... havent seen 110.

technically, there is no octane in gas. So, 94 octane is all synthetic addatives, but they call it octane and give it a rating based on what it would be if it were real.

NC has 87, 89 and 93. There's a gas station in Cary (of all places) that sells 100. Race tracks have leaded 110.
