Speaking of 91 octane, the gas stations around here aren't sellin it
anymore - or the mid-grade 87 octane.

Just regular.


Really? If I remember correctly, around here 87 octane is "regular", 89
octane is "plus" or something,
91 octane is "high test" .... and then Sunoco sells 93 octane as "Ultra".

I seem to remember that many years ago Sunoco used to sell a very high
octane blend .... something like 97 ... for the muscle car crowd.

Doesn't Sunoco put 10% ethanol in their "fuel?" I see that sticker on
their pumps and pass by. My gas sucking pig, 2001 F-150 5.4L, gets 20%
less MPG when the fuel contains ethanol.
