I've found that premium gas with 10% ethanol reduces my mileage by 12-15%. I guess that when they mix in the ethanol, they mix in other 'filler' junk, as I was told by a friend who mixes and delivers gasohol. So 10% ethanol is usually only about 82% lower octane gas as pumped into your car. What a rip off! Now the corn growers and ethanol industry are lobbying HARD to replace 10% ethanol with 15% ethanol, even though the EPA says mixes of greater than 10% can damage small engines. The Z owners manual is pretty insistent about not using more that 10%. Interesting fact as related to me by a gas delivery man, I live in corn country, even the corn farms don't fill their bulk tanks with gasohol on the farm for their personal use.
