If the manual says use premium, you need to use premium. Are you sure it says to use premium though? I didn't think any stock Honda's used premium gas. I thought premium was for Acuras.

The '03 V-6 specifies 87 octane. I think you need to re-read that manual. Is there a sticker at the gas fill stating premium fuel only? I think not if it is a US car.
