You can run premium in a car meant for regular gas but it does nothing. You can not however run regular in a car needing premium because you can toast it (if you do it all the time).

How I understand things, if you putter around town and don't ever do any spirited driving, you'll be fine. However, things will happen once you start taking the engine to higher RPM range. |

I've been using Costco gas for the past few months in my car. Great gas. I don't feel a difference between Costco, Chevron, or Shell. Price is muchh cheaper also. Also I don't get harassed by bums wanting money whenever I go to ANY Shell or Chevron. Only negative, like others say is the line. If you go early in the morning between 7-8 AM, there are virtually no lines. Also our cars have the gas tank on the passenger side. Hardly any cars go on the passenger side pumps.
