i didnt get all the way empty but i get almost exactly 75 miles per quarter tank -i just changed the fuel filter too maybe that could help mpg? thought it couldn't hurt because the old one looked like it hadnt been changed in a long, long time - and ive never really heard anything about higher octane gas getting better milage, but i have shortly researched how they make the different grades and unless we are being lied to (wouldn't doubt it) the higher octane is supposed to leave less gunk in your engine i.e. burn cleaner because it has less impurities in it - but either way i didnt buy it to save on gas- its worth it
