<VV> To Ping or Not to Ping ? - "Premium" vs. "regular" gas

[Charles Lee]

By "91+" I meant current "Premium" so isn't that what we were all
recommending to Randy (Cap'n) Hook for his 110 that doesn't ping ??

"Premium" was at least 91, or higher, so why would that be "experimenting" ?

I believe Cap'n Hook's question was about running his 110 on today's regular
gas without having any problems, and he thought that was curious ?

I was suggesting that he use premium even if the car sounded OK with
regular, which is a good idea, right ?

The 110 was designed to run on premium fuel.  I'd saying using what Chevy
intended for fuel is a good idea, unless you are experimenting.
