So my Pathfinder failed its biannual smog test the other day. The truck runs great and does not run hot or have any performance issues whatsoever (aside from only having 150hp to push around two tons). Before the test the engine was at full operating temp and had been driven pretty hard by me on...

we know that ethanol has a much higher octane rating than standard gasoline (130 I believe)I was wondering if gas stations simply add ethanol to regular old 87 which (I think) would bump its octane to around 89-90 or do they adjust other additives to compensate?
