<VV> To Ping or Not to Ping ? - "Premium" vs. "regular" Your results may vary ...

[Charles Lee]

I was simply reiterating the advice given here on VV many times, and did not 
want to countermand that previous advice to spend the extra 20 cents on your 
Corvair if (as advised herein on many occasions) there is a chance that it 
will help your Corvair last a little longer, and run a little better ?

Is this a weapon of cash reduction ?

It was almost a weapon of Corvair destruction :

In my case, the previous owner was using regular gas and the car was running 
horribly.
This caused him to almost crush a perfectly good Corvair, that I "repaired" 
by using premium for less than one tank full !

So, I would recommend using  premium, although my empirical data consists 
only of a data set consisting of only my one personal "data point" !

Your results may vary ...

Charlie
