Subject:Another naive question - fuel octane
From:Gregory W. Baskin

I've read others on the list saying that they fill up with high octane fuel.
VW says my new '85 is supposed to drink regular unleaded, and I haven't
experienced any pinging or knocking (yet).  Short of this, are there any
other reasons I should be purchasing higher octane fuel?
