I filled her up with 98 octane unleaded, which I believe is like your 93 
octane, and I paid US $8.98/gal(US).

We passed $4/gal somewhere around 1990.

The trip to Spa will make a huge dent in our finances this year, and 
only two weeks after Spa, the entire family is going to California to 
cruise around for two weeks and bring our daughter home after her 
university exchange program year.

I guess the trip to Spa will require around 125 or so gallons round 
trip. I'm happy that the EFI has reduced the fuel consumption 
dramatically from the Holley time.

You only live once...

Cheers,
Thomas
