This will certainly open a big can of worms with very different responses. I
myself prefer to run the best gas I can get, usually 92 or 93 octane, but then
I've also burned 2 engines up on 87 to 89 octane and that made me skittish. I
feel its a little of that I can pay more now or I can pay alot more later. It
just seems like the engine really seems to like the higher (but todays poorer
quality) gas. Just my 2 cents worth, now for the others...
