You sir are correct. Your gas mileage will drop when you run an Ethanol mix. Another thing people don't seem to understand is that higher octane levels don't improve your power it just allows your engine to make a power level more safely. When my other car was tuned safe on 93 any time I ran at the strip and put in a little race gas it lost MPH. Your car is meant to run on 91 and tuned for it by the factory so that is what it will run best with. All we have in 93 around here and I wish I could get some 91 just to see if it makes it run better.
