Premium Gas, Optimum Benefits

03/16/11
I know what you're thinking, "I'm not made of money!" But, this is a very affordable experiment to try. In your car, it costs significantly more to use premium fuel, so you're probably not going to use it unless you have a high performance car that requires it. But, the fuel your lawn mower burns might only cost a few extra dollars per year for premium. The benefits to your mower are as easy as 1, 2, 3:

1. Starts easier
2. Runs smoother
3. Lasts longer

The proof is in the pull. Now that it starts easily and runs smoothly, I know it's going to last longer and that's worth a few more dollars per year. The same applies to your car. If your car engine runs rough, you should give mid-grade or premium fuel a try. Your engine may sound noticeably better, idle smoother and start much easier too. If not, then it's a waste of money. In fact, the FTC says that premium fuel is a waste of money unless your car requires it or runs rough without it. If neither your mower nor car engine improve with premium fuel, then stop using it.
