      I'll try regular on my next trip to compare. I was having problems with occasional misfires, so I began putting in premium to clear out my fuel tank and engine in case I had gotten some of that bad gas that's going around.

      im geting 36 mpg in stop and go traffic, and once got 58mpg on the highway doing 80-90 km/h, so im very happy with my car
      Its more fun to drive a slow car fast, rather than drive a fast car slow!

      Water contamination is my guess. A bottle of methanol to a full tank usually fixes the problem.
      I leased Pontiac Wave from September 2006 to August 2011.
