I was talking the other day to some friends and mentioned that I was filling up with 89 octane ARCO gas. One of the guys said that he heard ARCO was bad gas. I didn't really believe him but decided to fill up a few tanks with Shell anyway just to see what would happen (other than spending about $3/tank more money). I have gone through about 1 full tank of Shell and that car really runs smoother and has stronger acceleration. I also noticed that it didn't lag this morning just after startup like it used to. Anyone else had this happen?

Thanks,
Eamon
