Message	you explain the mileage difference? Do they have an additive that makes it more similar to lower octane as far as energy vs measured amount? I know lower octane fuels have higher weight/power ratio than higher octanes, what would be the factor for better mileage? I do not fear what the future holds for me, I am not afraid to die.
