It's simple, he was referring to the OP, but speaking to Cool. Not that hard.

English 101 called, they think you're ditching.

Still don't see where I ridiculed anyone.

It's all good man. It just seems like you look down on people that's all.

I usually fill up with premium gas; for a Maxima with 145,000 miles should I continue to use high octane gas as the miles rack up?

i guess i skipped the how to become a d-bag class too, but you obviously went more than once. hope it was cheap

PS: its not hard to understand now, but before it seemed as though he was referring to cool. jeff's grammar < mine.

I don't care about all the arguments about if it works or not. I picked up a bottle of the octane booster after work and put it in my gas tank. I start it up, and drove it around. When I got on the highway I pushed it, and it absolutley hauled ***. I couldn't believe it, the stuff really works! I went from a stop to 80 faster than I ever have before. The engine seems to shift so easy and have way more response. Is having the high octane that the stuff delivers OK for the motor? I might put a bottle of this stuff in every other fillup.

well, i didnt forget my little experiment...
I started my trip from NC to Florida on Monday. I did manage to get some numbers from the first tank without adding anything. I got 34 miles per gallon, over 500 miles on the tank easily. That was going about 75-80, not really going over 3.5k rpms ever. I added the octane booster and the injector cleaner. On that tank i did run it a tad bit differently, going over 80 a few times but the mileage was nowhere near even 30 mpg for sure. I barely went over 400 miles on that tank, AND my CEL came on towards the end of that tank. I dont know if it takes a little time or how many bottles it'll take, but because of the CEL coming on and the decrease in the gas mileage i doubt i will use the other bottle. but we'll see... i may change my mind on the way back to NC
