What is the difference in grades of gasoline?
Most people are aware that there are three choices for gasoline at the pumps: regular, mid-grade and premium. But what does it all mean, and is there a difference?
Regular grade gasoline is perfectly fine for most drivers and is now the dominant fuel of choice. However, the more powerful the car engine the more sensitive a driver should be to the type and grade of gasoline they put in their car.
