Do you think there is any difference in the grades?

Hi Angry Aspie,
We have fueled our "92 Camry Wagon, 6 cylinder engine with alternate
fill-ups of Mobil's Special and Premium grades of gasoline since we got it
new in 1992. The manual called for an octane value that matched the
average of these two grades. It's performed flawlessly and expect to hit
100,000 miles on this tankful.
Good luck with your Camry, it deserves the best (proper octane)!
