The manufacture/blender of the gasoline base stock would have to upgrade the additive package to something with longer storage qualities.
As for the storage capability of the 87 or 89 octane basestock, THERE ISN"T ANY DIFFERENCE.
I"m amazed the number of people who run a machine that doesn"t suffer detonation with 87 octane. Yet they are certain that power and mileage improves in that same machine with 89 or 91 octane.
Now if your purchase a name brand 87 or 89 octane gasoline and compare it to Bargain Bobs no name brand 87/98 octane across the street for 5 cents a gallon less. Then certainly the name brand 89 octane will have a superior additive/storage package than the bargain 87 octane.
