There is a search up there ^^^. Please use it for such simple queries. I'm pretty sure I wouldn't be so annoyed about this post if there wasn't the same bloody question (and answers) just a few posts below!

I have a copy of the booklet that the federal gov put out telling you what older cars can run on unleaded and it says all geminis can run unleaded.

martin, if you cant tell the difference between LRP and Unleaded then there must be something wrong with you (no offence intended, figure of speech). there isnt any noticible power difference that i can feel but its the overall smoothness that makes the difference...

go premium!!

cheers,
