"octane myth"



This is a copy of a AAA article  printed without permission:
US motorists waste about $1.7 billion a year buying premium gasoline that
their vehicles don't need, AAA said last week. Typically, exotic
automobiles, some sport-utility vehicles and cars with high-performance
engines -- less than 10% of the vehicles on the road -- are among those
that require the high-octane fuel.  Yet, many consumers fall for the
"octane myth," mistakenly believing that the premium gasoline provides
better performance and a cleaner burn, the AAA said.
No need to say anymore!!!!!!!
