uhhhhh ... ok, now remember that the Powers That Be changed the octane ratings
sometime in the past. so what used to be 91 octane in 1973 is now 87 octane
in 1995. so you have to read the owners manual to see if it says
91 RON octane. if so, that's the new 87 (RON+???)/2 octane at the pump.


but there are folks who say that running Premium (92 or 93 Today Octane)
is better (here we go again! :) ...
