Default volvo 98 s70

I have a 98 volvo s70 and the engine lite comes on and when I got a
diagnostic reading I was told i am using 91 octane gasoline when I should
be using 95 octgane as I live in panama and the quality of gasoline 91 is
not the same . I have been using 91 octane gasoline for 9 years if i do
switch to the 95 otgane with the engline light still come on and with the
cause of the problem with the oxygensenor can I still ride the car with
no problems to the engine, because of the reading of the oxygen sensor
In other words when the check engine lite comes on and it is becasue of
an ozygen sensor reader if I continue to drive the car will it cause damage
to the engine, and do I definately need to replace the ozygen sensor or can
I clean it. tks.
