    I just filled up with some premium at the AM/PM by the Gwinnett Civic Center. The QT at exit 16 on I-985 had premium also.

    I still keep buying gas when my tank is on "E" but it's riskier now.

    The 6 speed T remains in the garage because of this this sht, it's actually BEEN IN THE GARAGE for a while now.

    This needs to end NOW!

    Tank ful of 87 plus octane booster is like 87.3 octane. Waste of money.

    No. It would be better to mix 87 and 89 compared to just octane booster. But still, find premium is the only real option.

    please inform me as to why you would be looking for anything but regular gas to put in a Sonata??
    Premium will get you better gas mileage overall and it makes the engine run better/last longer. I put premium in all the cars i drive.

    I was there yesterday around 5. Took me 30 min to get to the pump. Lines were crazy, people were having wrecks since the lines spilled out onto Fulton In'd.

    The BP at I-285 and Buford Hwy had all 3 grades yesterday morning, but were out this morning. They are limiting sales to $20 at a time though. It's still good for bikes. I filled up my bike yesteray, and got the Mustang up to a half tank. Parked the Mustang though for now. Truck is cheaper on fuel and takes regular.

    Doesn't it damage the motor if it's lower compression? I was always told that engines ping with higher octane if the compression is lower.

    I'm not trying to argue.. I'm just wondering..

    I had no choice but to use 87oct on my WRX last night, 20 dollars worth. I'm using economy mode right now though, which allows me to use lower octane but at the same time makes my car run like complete sh*t. It's slow as balls and I'm scared it might f*ck something up in the future. Ugh, this whole no gas situation, is getting pretty insane.
