There is a performance difference- it will perform better on regular. I've had consistantly higher mpg's with regular than premium (or gasohol)! Al Brase

Only difference might be like Chevron, Standard or Shell who supposedly add things to their fuel, but personally I don't think their high prices justify using them!! We had Cadillacs a few years back and even used regular in them (even though they say not to with the V8 engine) and they worked fine, too! > >Sharon Mendonca > >88 Vanagon GL > >88 Westy > > >
