87 Octane fuel triangle on Bf 109 F-2: possible?

Hello,

As far as my available references tell, Bf 109 F-2 or better its DB 601 N engine could only be fed with C3 higher octane fuel and only the DB 601 E installed in the Bf 109 F-4 could also burn B3 (87 octane) fuel.

Is this correct or were there known exceptions? I am no Bf 109 expert. Any help from board members with better 109-knowledge is greatly appreciated.

Roger
