You need to be more concerned on how much ethanol % is in gas.
Damn feds approved cars newer then 2000 for E15 or 15% ethanol. More ethanol % the leaner engine will be running, the fuel mileage also drops and so does the performance. Takes only a few minutes to test gas for ethanol so if in doubt test and also query gas stations used and require they know how much ethanol is in their gas. |
