Chilly out here today, -5 or something like that. Petrol is 89.9 for regular walked to the dollar store and saw it posted at DOMO. Coupon and gift card time at burger King, these guys are cutting down on the condiments so the burgers aren't as sloppy as they used to be. Was reading that the national unemployment rate is 5.6 but Calgary is at 7.5 which is a full percent above the provincial average. When the economy is booming and the only people left who can be hired are bums, dummies and idiots Calgarians will be hired.

I have run regular in the panel without any problem but because I'm running fuel injection I like to keep the injectors clean. I don't find it runs any better though

I always make sure I have premium in the tank for when they are stored over the winter but got caught with regular in the pickup this year because winter was sprung on us without much warning but I have a can and a half of Seafoam in the tank and will rune it a few times over the winter to keep the gas moving through the system

Looks lik we may get snow in a few days John.
Well that turned out to be long trip thru the city and out the other side after I asked my wife to come along as I went for the windshield, she wanted to do a bit of shopping then afterwards then we had supper in town. On the way home I washed her Escape, it's been mucky here this last week.
I use regular in my Honda Steve.
That's good idea to fill with premium on the last the tank before parking for the winter John, I will do that next fall. I have a big jug of Seafoam and I'll put some in both the XL And 53 M100 gas tanks. I always use premium in the Mustang.
