Anyone use premium gasoline?

[thehunterooo]

Wonder if it would run better, and cleaner too

it's good to throw it in once in awhile, but you wont see any improvement from it unless you do something like f/i, nitrous, higher compression, or advance the timining. If you do any of those anyway you'll have to run higher octane or you'll go boom

[thehunterooo]

can you advance the timing on an aveo? Ill have to take it to my friend next week then and see what he can do, that would be interesting.

I throw in a take of premium everynow and then. Mostly I just run the Aveo on regular unleaded.

I hear NOS drinks work well too.....

I run premium once a month just out of routine. It helps keep it clean, but you burn through it faster lol.

The only way to do that is to do the resistor mod either on the IAT sensor of Coolant temperature sensor.

Any higher octane used in an engine doesn't really do much.

The difference is very tiny if anything and would take awhile to do anything, Seafoaming is somewhat the same thing cept it's more concentrated and just absorbs the carbon buildup and burns it off. Premium gas does the same thing it's just not as effective.

The difference between different grades of gas is like comparing vodka to beer, it's in the refining process. The more refined it is the more pure it is and more powerful it's combustion is. Premium gas has just had more refining than unleaded, in which case it has less particulate matter and free roaming carbon atoms to attach to your engine or reduce efficiency.

At least that's what I understand about fuel...

All I know is JP-5 jet fuel is so strong it can literally dissolve through metal if left alone, which is why planes use special bladders to hold it.

But please dont.

Meh, I only fill up at Chevron w/Techron. It's really good clean fuel and I've never had a fuel problem with a single one of my vehicles.
