Here in Iowa I'm starting to see 93 octane gas but with ethanol added. I don't know the percentage of ethanol, normally here we see 89 or 90 octane with 10% ethanl, I do run the 89 or 90 in my s-10 pickup but never in my 2.7, What do you guys think about this 93 stuff? Sometimes 92 octangcan be hard to find aground here. I kind of think it might not be a good idea to run in 2.7.

Default That's cheap...however....

What I can't figure is the price differential between regular and premium. At the terminal, 93 octane premium of a major brand (Citgo/Texaco/Exxon-Mobil/etc only costs about 9-10 cents more than 87 octane regular. But at the pump it's often marked up 15-25 cents/gallon.

Cheers,
