Hi-Octane? 120-130 1967

posted by  someone claiming to be mjamgb on  Tue Aug 31 11:28 CST 2004 [RELATED]

USA "pump octane" is the RON+MON/2 method. Works out about 3-6 points lower than straight RON depending on formulation, oxygenators, etc...

In Northern Nevada (Carson City, Reno is higher) gas has been climbing recently. Seems to want to ping-pong around $2/gallon for regular unleaded at local cheapest alternative. Add 25 cents/gallon for "name brand" like Shell or Chevron. Premium is running roughtly 30 cents a gallon higher than regular with "plus" somewhere in-between.

Regular here is 85 pump octane due to elevation (4800').

Mike!
