My '84 manual says REGULAR, unleaded only.  Under high load operating
conditions, high test may be used.  Gasohol may be used if no more than 10%
ethanol.  Do not use any fuel with octane less than 87 (US grading) or 91
(European/Research Octane Number).


Doesn't mention methanol but I'm sure it's forbidden.


Don't think oxygenated fuels existed in '84 -- anyway, AFAIK you don't have
much choice in the matter, you have to use them during winter (I presume
this varies from place to place).
