All gasoline is the same. In fact it all flows through the same pipeline. What changes is the detergent package added by the supplier before it is delivered to the retailer-the gas station. Octane is a measure of the gasoline's ability to resist knocking. Knocking is when the gasoline is already developing pressure as the piston is still coming up. Obviously that will damage the engine. A modern car will have a knock sensor and will retard the timing, when the spark plug fires if the fuel is causing knock. This will reduce power and thus use more fuel per mile. People who purchase fuel at places like Walmart, Costco truth is you do not know what you are buying. High octane fuels tend to also be higher detergent fuels. Depends on what you are driving. A turbo, a supercharger may well require high octane fuels. Often they will suggest brand names. Your golf cart, it is MY OPINION a waste of money. |

When we first started renting here - i was surprised how little gas we used in the golf cart. We rented around LSL - and mostly drove to/from LSL.
After we bought (near Brownwood) - all of a sudden we are driving to BW, some nights to LSL - and now to Ednas or Fenney Grill. We are using more gas each week. |
Yep. I generally recommend that people RTFM. Lots of good information to dispel urban myths.

We have a 2017 Yamaha Quietech Drive 2, which gets 87 octane gas. I have installed a GPS based odometer/speedometer (eliminates the tire size problems) and we are currently getting 42 MPG on the first 4 tank fill ups.

There is one on Wedgewood Lane in Buffalo Ridge Plaza. It is in strip with Home Goods, Marshall’s, Beall’s, and Pet Store. Across from Fresh Market.

I played as many as 11 execs in one day(in light rain when no one else was playing) and 17 that weekend. I played as a single on most of the courses and a few with my friends when there was an opening. It was usually easy getting 4 or 5 rounds a day in.I met a lot of great people and TV golf staff. On December the 11th(2020) Jeff Shain of the Daily Sun did a great article on me on the front page of the sports section. Needless to say, I put a lot of miles on my cart and went through a lot of premium gas. :):) |
