I have a (new to me) Toyota Solara V6 (in a very yummy 5speed MANUAL)
According to the maintenance book, I should be running premium octane. But regular *can* be used.
I was thinking with the cost of gas in my area, I could save some coin at the pump by running regular. My local parts store has a boat load of Gummout Octane booster in the $2 range.
Working out the math I would save about $3 by running regular but adding an octane booster.
no I wouldn't be saving a ton of cash but $3 a week for 52 weeks is a $156 per year.
Does Octane booster work? Or is the actual premium gas a better idea.
Factors: The V6 Solara engine is a known sludger.
