That's really interesting, Bob. It seems if lower quality fuel attacks the
amount of ZDDP in the motor oil it would especially affect our Healey
engines that require higher amounts of ZDDP.

OK, I'll get the ball rolling.<br>
<br>
I have a background in chemistry, and have always been interested in
stuff chemical, including motor oil and fuel. This is, to me, an
interesting take I hadn't given a thought to before. I've alway=
s run
premium in my Healeys, Lincoln (required) and Mustangs (of course)
and my two-strokes* (chainsaws, blower, trimmers), but have made do
with regular--mostly Costco--in my other equipment (Ranger,
tractors, mower, edger, quad, squirrel gasser, Gator). My engine
builder told me the engines he sees in the best shape have been run
exclusively on Chevron premium, so the Mustang and Healeys get that
whenever possible, the Lincoln and two-strokes get Costco 91;
everything else gets Costco 87 (note Costco gas claims to be 'Top
Tier'). <br>
<br>
* My Stihl 4-stroke string trimmer specs 89-octane, but Costco only
has 87/91 so the 2-stroke mix gets 91.<br>
