[QUOTE="ddgermann, post: 152696, member: 3537"] If the sticker is there I would expect it to be correct. Oddly enough the gasoline we use is not all created equal. Despite the precise processing and quality control it’s somewhat like whiskey. Even our cars are designed to operate in a range and not necessarily an exact. It gets more precise with high end racing fuels that are very exact in octane, additives and quality as these engines and tune setups require a more excact fuel to operate properly and safely. Yes it is not often anyone working at a gas station knows anything about the fuel they sell anymore. Pretty much up to the car owner to do his homework now. Most cars it makes no difference... but Corvettes and other modern high performance cars... fuel quality and composition definitely matters. I just find it amazing we can buy a 700hp car that runs on pump fuel today. [/QUOTE]
