    Diff Fluid for 14 Bolt Full-Floater

    Premium vs. regular fuel question

    It really wont change anything, and can cause more carbon buildup. When the octane rating goes up, you need an increase in either timing or compression to take advantage of the "premium" fuel. Some newer vehicles do this quite well (flex-fuel equiped in particular) but a majority won't have a...
