Bruce,

Do you remember what the octane rating was on the AMACO Premium back then?

In the early 60's I owned and operated an Amoco Gas/ service station in
South Jersey. during that time, I had 11 Corvairs and used Amoco Premium ,
lead free gas in all of them also sold plenty of that"white" gas for Coleman
lanterns, and lawn mowers also.  Never had a problem with any of them.
Incidentally , I sold more "premium" than regular gas by a wide margin even
though it was higher priced than  regular and most other Brands. That was
when prices were around 28.9 to 35.9  I never guessed I'd be paying 10 or
more times that now!
