Well i went to get gas last night, and i was getting the normal 20 bucks of super. So my car is filling up and i am just playin with the radio, the guy hands me my receipt and..................HE PUT REGULAR IN MY CAR!!!!!! So i snapped. I said to the hindu " did you not hear me say super" and he was like oh so sorry. Then i got more mad and i said "do you have any ****ing idea what you did! Do you know what pinging is?" Of course he just looked at me stupid. So i left there and went and got 2 bottles of octane boost and added those. Then i drove to a sunoco station and was able to squeeze just about 2 gallons of 100 octane in the tank. Luckily i sill had a 1/4 tank of super when this moron screwed me. So i am not sure what my octane rating is at the moment, but i have had no pinging or detonation yet. Just gonna run it down another 1/4 tank and use 100 octane to fill it. And they wonder why i hate full serve gas stations, they should make jersey self serve. But they can't because i am sure there are whiny yuppies who won't want to do it themselves.

oregons the other state that does this i live in wa. so when i go down to cali i always get out and act like im getting gas they flip out its funny crap... you will be fine to just fill up with super next time no need for 100oct. if you dont want it to knock just take it easy till you get 1/4 tank. i dont know what car you have i assume theres boost mods unknown also that helps if you lived in ca your lookin at i belive 91 oct. and thats it i dont know what your regular is rated at?

Here in jersey regular is 87 octane, so that's why i am using 100. I have a msp and i'm running 14psi so i need super which is 93 octane here.

Today i went to jifffy lube to get an oil change because i needed it quick and it is cold. I brought my own oil and made it very clear i had my own oil. The one guy told the guy filling my oils that i had my own oil. You think they used my oil?????
NO
I get in to my car and see my oil sitting in the front seat. i think did they give me back the bottles until i picked it up and was like WTF. I get out and go back in and calmly said... Why is my oil still in my front seat. he literaly said... holy ****! in front of a bunch of customers! pretty funny. i said get that crap oil out of my car ASAP i have been here a half hour already and i have to leave. Luckely they had a bay not being used because the exit door was broken and squeezed me in there and i was out in 15 minutes. I watched them.
Funny thing is, i will see the guy at MIR tomorrow! Idiots! but the main guy was kool. The non english speaking asian was an idiot!
So no. It doesn't just happen to you and I hate jersey gas stations, damn union!

I think I will get a small bottle of octane booster and keep in in the back of the car in a zip lock. That way, just in cars, I will be able to boost it up. Full service here in Florida? lol, no way.
