Alright, just makin sure. There have many people in the past who only go by how many miles they get before it "appears" to be close to being empty so I just wanted to confirm. As long as the gas is 91 octane or above, it is what the engine is supposed to use. I must say that it seems very odd for it to be getting that poor of mileage. That's about what I can get out of my silver with no high clutch left in the auto.
