Yes, I can go to another station, but it was so close to passing I thought I might as well just try this station again as the retest is free there. If it fails again I will definitely go somewhere else.

Why put 91 in it if it doesn't burn better or produce more power? Why not 93?

And I had 91 in it the first time.
