I took my car for an oil change yesterday and was speaking with the mechanics about gasoline. My car calls for premium, could I get away with the cheaper grades? Seems I can alternate but for the most part, no. <BR/><BR/>Of more interest to the general public was what they said about Sheetz an WaWa, the discount gasolines. According to them they use the lowest level of detergents allowed by law. They are seeing a huge increase in the number of issues from the carbon build-ups as people use these brands more and more in the face of skyrocketing gas prices. Very expensive repairs. Their advice was to alternate between the premium brands and the discount brands to avoid these problems. If you've been buying the cheap stuff, as I have, run 3 or 4 tanks of the premium brands to clean out the gunk. They recommended BP as the best. Or you could avoid both the expensive repairs and the cost of gas and bike everywhere (we really need more bike lanes in Richmond...)<BR/><BR/>BTW - The omelette looked really good. Glad you could salvage something from the aioli debacle.Bookstore Piethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16229389993923004442noreply@blogger.com
