Re: Is it ok to put any other gas in a 1996 cadillac...
Yes, you can use regular gas but it wont perform as well. Long term use of a lower octane fuel can lead to other problems down the line but this is not a critical issue.

Put some premium or high test gas in the tank and a can of Seafoam. Take it out for a good drive. Sitting for a year or so will cause the old gas to varnish in the fuel lines and injectors. Whyen you park it again, make sure there is NO regular gas in it. Regular gas with ethanol will create havoc with an engine that sits. It makes water.
It's tuned to run on premium so that's what you need to use. And if you think about it, with an 18-gallon tank and calling it a 15-cent price difference between mid-grade and premium, you're looking at paying an extra $2.70 to fill it with premium from empty vs using 89.
I'd first try a different gas station... and make sure you're putting in premium if required. And also make sure that you get the gas cap on right... sounds stupid but it can cause problems.
thair is a sensor located beside the oil filter . repace it. if u done that check the wiring to the sensor may be shorted out. one wire is a signal wire the other is ground
If you had a strong stream of gas shooting out then you may have an fuel injector problem. Possibly a clogged injector or bad injector.If the stream of gas was weak replace fuel filter first and test again.If problem persists check pump fuse then replace pump. sorry for miss reading your post.
Your car does not require premium fuel. If you have a lead foot and live in a hilly area, it's possible you're causing knock. Best bet... check that your gas cap is tight.
