Premium fuel is typically 92 octane, I think?? This is much higher than the 87 octane typically required for the low-compression engines used in golf carts. While it won't hurt anything, it will provide no benefit unless you observed pinging with regular fuel. If you did observe pinging with regular fuel, there is an issue with your engine that should be addressed.
