octane baby!

[sad_rocc at yahoo.com (Dan Smith)]

I do paypal. Also, just to clarify, but this isn't just any air. This is Rocky Mountain air, bottled at over 10,000ft. Therefore, the bottle may be a bit squished when it gets to you.

So it would appear to be that the summarization of all this is if I had a
knock sensor, I would get better mileage with higher octane gas. Since I
have a low-compression engine with no knock sensor, the cheap stuff is
better. Am I correct? And does anyone know know what song the subject line
is based one? I'll give you a hint, the group that does it has Bono in it,
and not Sonny. Thanks for all the responses!

Ask the list what color the sky is and I can guarentee a 50+ post war

The KS retards the timing when there is predetonation. I get measurable if
not noticable increase.
