Hi Volks

I have made a curios observation and I wonder if it is just a coincidence
or is it real. A couple weeks ago I filled up my 72 SB with high octane
gas, a day later i noticed a bad gas leak. I replaced some of the gasline
filled up with regular unleaded gas, the leak was gone and I was happy.
Two days ago I filled up with high octane gas from the same company as the
original high octane gas. As you might have guessed, yesterday gas was
dripping from my car. The gas leaks when the car is runing or just after it
has stopped. Can this leak be linked to high octane gas, or some kind of
additive that the gas company is putting in their gas.
