10.61 MN/liter (Magna) x 3.7854 liters/US gal divided by 12.69 MN/US$ = $3.16US/USgal

11.09MN/liter (Premium) x 3.7854 liters/US gal divided by 12.69MN = $3.31US/US gal


Excellent, gracias!

Ask ferriterias. If you do use it more isn't better it won't hurt anything its just a waste. Google it, My take it just cleans injectors after 3 uses you won't get better fuel economy. Many people have different ideas. Ask Juan where to get it.

I agree thank you thany you, and I don't see how anybody can COMPARE the price of gas in Mexico, to the USA, WITHOUT knowing the exchange rate at that time. Maybe their point was to compare it to last time in Mexico, what is the price per liter now compared to .......

Excellent, gracias!

Inside the pump? Any brand of gas in particular? Anything to look for to detect a suspicious pump?


Inside the pump. Nothing a customer could notice. They attach it to the insides of the card reader and steal your info. All you can do is ask the owner if they check their pumps daily. Many stations have started putting tamper resistant stickers on the pumps to alert them if someone has opened them. Some have installed locks.

unless your manufacturer states the engine MUST run on premium then reg is fine

people "love" their cars...they "feel good" if they give it the "best":yes::yes:


I think you mean 'Premium' (91) , as Magna is regular (87)?


After the correction -- I agree 100%. Bob and Susan, you always tell it like it is. I like that.

I paid $4.49/gallon in Borrego Springs today. Only put in $20, enough to get me back to civilization.

If you question that it will be bad for your engine I have been using in my vehicles for the last 15 years, other people on forums using 40 years.
