As I've been sitting around with family these last couple of days may DSM related things have crossed my mind. Do I need two fuel pumps, should I pick up new suspension? Then the question of questions crossed my mind. What constitutes pump gas? By definition one would think that just as it comes out of the pump at your local gas station and has road taxes paid on it, it would be categorized as pump gas. People on the east coast have access to Sunoco 94 octane, however people in the Midwest do not have the access to this miracle unleaded blend, but it is still called “pump gas”. Then I realized that in Chicago a person can go and buy "race gas" out of the pump at any Gas City. Also there are the new ethanol based fuels E85, and E98 being sold and taxed at your local petrol station.
The question I bring up for debate is what is considered Pump Gas? What criteria must a fuel meet before obtaining the name “Pump Gas”? -------------------- Yeah!!!!!!!!!!! AND WASH THAT THING OFF BEFORE YOU COME BACK!!! GROSS

All of that and I don't know what I want to do next. |

Pump gas = Unleaded gas you get at a gas station....
So to some people "100/101 unleaded" is still questionable on whether its genuine pump gas or not, but in my defintion it IS pump gas....Oddly enough, in my OPINION, it is actually race gas.... I ran the 12.7 in my sig on 100 unleaded "race gas", despite buying it from a genuine pump...... -------------------- -Josh
