    thats what alot of people do up here anyway.if youre truck is borderline ,on the octane scale.we go get 10 gallons of 114 and mix it on a friday night and raise hell.it does make a diff and it keeps everything nice and clean ,includidng youre tailpipes.

    Just make sure its Un Lead fuel.... So it doesnt coat the o2 sensors... I ran a grand national years ago... Had C24 or something I bought from Conley ... He promised It was as close to Alcohol as I would get ! We would run 5 Gallons in 5 gallons of 93... about 100miles later SES light would come on ... Install another 02 and try it again
