Easy --
ME: You guys filled my gas tank? What type of gas?
Dealer: Regular

Dealer: Oh, no you'll be fine on regular...
ME: uhh.....

I don't think they'll lie about giving you shitty gas when they said they gave you shitty gas. I don't think you can drain it from the tank, but I know that if you leave your car sitting there the gas will evap. right now I'm going to let the car run idle without moving it so it's not under load. This way I wont run into issues too much, then head over to the gas station within a week or so and fill up on premium.

Btw -- this is capitol toyota over in san jose. They also ****ed me on the 2000 celica trade in.
