the 1st post changed my driving as i 1st drove @ 3.5k on average. now i drive mine @ about 4 - 5k down the hwy.

further.... let me ask how much truth does the type of gas i put into my car help to break down or clean my engine parts have? i put 91 in my 986 and i read chevron has techroline . shell has vpower . union 76 ... etc. they show pictures of a dirty part w/o their gas. then they show a clean or cleaner part after 2 tanks of their gas. how much truth to all their advertising about cleaning my engine parts will clean out the carbon build up?? i believe that most of that is ad hype but how much is kinda my question.
