  • thats bullcrap, because i run 95 octane what is reccomended ....when i run 98 octane there is a hell of alot more power and i get more miles out of a tank.....( 5.6 litre V8)......These people really need to do there research before saying stupid stuff like this...

  • my 92 chevy silverado runs way better on premium than regular so fuck everybody

  • I agree with you I use premium on all my cars. when gas reached $4.80 a gallon for premium gas people would just stare at me and wait until I was done to see how much money I was spending on my firebird. right now cause of the snow I drive my dads F-250 and it sucks on gas but I dont give a fuck I still use premium.

  • read your owners manual.your vehicle is not a high performance truck.and no its not running better its all in your mind.your 92 truck is low horse power truck,if you had an escalade or viper truck you do need premium because the high performace motor but you have a regular engine.and fuck you back loser

  • fag

  • if it burns faster it has a bigger bang do the math.stupid peaple wont change thier stupid ways anyways

  • this is a carbon copy of another video

  • @samtart I watched that video

  • JSErwine and Carlito are correct. If the manufacturer calls for premium, it's for a higher compression engine. Using regular can damage your engine, not worth the savings. If you have a car that requires regular though, using premium is just wasting your money and probably not as efficient.

  • Garbage video

  • High Octane is only needed if indicated in the manual, otherwise its a waste, as the video implies.

  • @smstevenms that far from true

  • I use Amoco Ultimate in my boat and lawnmover as well as my cars. Do the experiment - it is amazing how much better they run on a CLEAN gas.

  • only on little things and cars that NEED it

  • Octane rating is misunderstood by most people. Higher octane is for higher compression engines, it prevents pre-ignition. Though higher octane will help some at higher engine temperatures, such as summer driving conditions.

    It used to mean a little more than that when lead was still used in gasoline, more lead helped lubricate engine parts.

    EPA outlawed the use of lead around the early 1970's because of air pollution.

  • I have 5 vehicles that require premium & would never consider a lower grade to save money. If the manufacturer calls for it- use it!! They know what they are talking about...
