Regular or Premium

[ydopen]

I usually buy where im at, at the time and 99.999% of the time get regular. Now that ive been playing with the Fuelly app on my phone I mite start running the non-ethenol gas here at the only gas station in my town lol. I will also have to refrain from listening to the sweet sound of that 5.4 with the flowmaster on it lol

What's the difference in the Navigator vs Expedition, why would one require Premium and one Regular?

Navigator has a 4V engine. And I'm guessing higher compression along with it.

For previous generations maybe but the 3rd gen Navs use the same motor as the Expys.

I've tried both, it seems to run better with regular.

How many noticed this is posted in the 3rd Gen section?

Shell URT Advanced 110 octane race unleaded!! Only about $12 a gallon.....



OK... maybe just on a rare occasion.

How's it that the navigator has had the same engines as the expedition and yet you say it requires premium?? I'm lost and confused.

Depends on my Kroger fuel points lol, but usually regular. It runs good either way, I also use Lucas fuel treatment every few tanks.

When I still had my Crown Vic I had to use premium, it was the only car that I've owned that ran like complete garbage if I put regular in it.

Best thing to do for your boat and truck is to go to Ethanol-free gas stations in the U.S. and Canada and hopefully find a station closeby that sells non-ethanol gas and fill up with that. Definitely improves performance and even mileage somewhat. Whatever you do, avoid the E85!

i believe you might be using it lol its from the ARAMCO refineries so i think it is actually sent across to the states

I'm more interested in this $.66\gallon talk, that would make my pocket very happy lol.

I have a 2004 with a 4.6, I burn regular with no etanol. It cost .10 more but i get better mileage and better running vehicle.

I believe it is state law in Michigan to have 10% ethanol. If you check your link and go to the MI page all the octanes are 91+ and I bet cost a pretty penny too. I have been running this mix in all my vehicles for as long as I have been driving and don't notice any problems. Whenever I go out to the plain states I always fill up with no ethanol fuel and get better mileage.
