There's really no need to use plus in any case AT ALL. I have some classic cars, which require premium no matter what, and that's what I have to use. Newer cars today, even if they say they require premium, you can fill with regular unleaded.

I used to use it but I don't now. It only works if you do it every single time. But with the cost of gas being so high that is out of the question.

I can't say that I've ever put plus or premium gas in my car. I only use regular. I've never had any problems attributed to it. I have wondered in the past if my car would idle smoother if I used a different level.

That's really not true. It doesn't do anything to increase performance even if you do it every time.

Would it idle smoother? Probably not. Even if it did, that's really negligible for the price.

Welcome to the site, smartauto. What do you think of the different gas levels? I basically think as long as your engine isn't knocking, it doesn't matter what level you use.

Plus level gas is recommended because they are quite helpful in producing a good mileage for your car, and they also keep engine clean.

When I got my first car I was only using the premium gas because it is better quality. But as time went on I stopped using it. I don't use it anymore, simply because I need to save money and I can't really spend it if I don't need to that kind of octane.

Who can afford it? I can't afford the premium gasoline - heck some days I can't afford Regular gas. I don't think that you have to use the premium gas. I have never used it and so far so good.
