Read somewhere (Consumer Reports or similar?) that putting premium gas in a vehicle designed for 87 octane is a waste of money, but I might try a few tanks of this Shell V-power. It may cost less than the ethanol-free that I put in the Model A.......
Chris yes you are right there is no advantage to running Premium in a car designed for regular fuel.

The Shell V-Nitro is good now and then to clean up injectors and the upper cylinder. Maybe once or twice a year with a tank full each time will do it!
