Based on a couple of tanks Union 76, Antonio reports that his car is pulling better with less notable pings... the only problem is that there are very few 76 stations around the valley.

Come on guys, i'm not trying to prove anything here... just wanted to gather some information so we can help each other out... isn't that what a forum is for? Try out different brands of gas and see if it makes a difference in your cars... yes, i know 101 octane is better (no sheat, Einstein!), but many of us can't afford $6.00 a gallon to put in your daily driver?

No, it's all mixed before they event make it to the pump. But they do come from the same pipeline w/o any octane measurement.

Call me crazy, but I think your Evo will run better on gasoline than soda.

It's back and in one piece... for now. Had to take it back to the dealership about 5 times because their weak "technicians" sit around flagging hours and did a rotten job. But I'm happen to say that things seem to be good now.
