Cheap High price gas. Put some high octane in it and it will be alright.
That is all I run in my Gremlin. With gas as high as it is what is
another 20 cents a gallon. I know mine runs better on it. Back in 74 gas
was gas. Now with all this junk they put in it who knows what it is.
Just my 2 cents worth.
