Bunch of questions, IDK if they belong here, but here goes...
These are some questions that I have been wondering and decided to make a bid thread about them, IDK if they belong in this forum but oh well...
1. RPO CODES - This Z28 of mine is my first car, and since I bought it from a local dealer I don't know much about it, I can't find the RPO sheet at all! Is there someone who can help me learn more about my car with the VIN alone, I read on here that some of you guys have access to a GM Database or something like that and can help me out. Anyone? That would really make my day... PM me,
2. My car was in an accident and got that Reconstructed thing on the title sheet or w/e it's called, I heard that someone from the DMV can come out and look at your car, and if it passes, they can issue you a clean title, is this true and if so how do I do it?
3. FUEL - 87, 89, 91, 93 - These are all the different types at my gas station, which one should I use on a daily basis? Which ones do you guys use? I heard I should use 93 to flush out my engine...
Only 3 questions, I thought I would think of more... oh well,
If you can answer any, thanks...

im pretty sure thers an RPO decoder somewhere on this forum, or mayb it got deleted...if you cant find it on the internet then go to your dealership with your VIN and they can print off all the codes and what they represent.
i dont know anything about american vehicle titles or DMVs so i cant help you there.
as for fuel, if your timing is right and your not getting any knock then you can run on regular fuel. but regular fuel is kinda dirty and can clog up injectors, so sometimes its good to run the injector cleaner with every fillup. but for that price you can just get the high octane stuff which is very clean and you dont need to buy the injector cleaner. its the only reason i buy the 93 octane.

Check inside the lid of the storage compartment on the left side under the hatch for the RPO list.

yup your dealership is a pretty friendly place, granted they dont know much about our cars but they know a lot about GM and how they run. go ahead and give them a call first and ask if theyll help you.
