The BEST trip to the gas station EVER!
I went to the gas station today to fill the tank and when I pulled up to the pump, I looked at the prices on the pumps screen. It said:
REGULAR:2.589 PLUS:2.659 PREMIUM:.274 Needless to say, someone screwed up and I got 14+ gallons for $4.05 They fixed it right after I filled up too. YAY FOR ME! |

I'd been satisfied with the $2.74. It's $3.29 out here.
Thanks California!! We love your whacky 91 octane fuel!

I got mad when you said you filled up for 4 bucks.

On the west coast that vroom vroom sounds more like sputter sputter. I really think 91 octane is really pushing it with an SVX. I can literally tell a difference with a can of octane booster, and I couldn't do that in TN.

Hell, I can tell a difference between 93 and 94. It runs much better with 94 and it really likes a bottle of octane boost on top of that too.

15 is my norm. On two separate SVX's. Both tuned normally, and I drive conservatively.
So it is the gas! I've always suspected it when quite a few here say they are getting over 20 on the interstate.
