What burns faster premium or pump gas?
Premium is a "pump gas". "Pump gas" is term used for any grade gas found at any given gas station such as regular, mid grade, and premium. It doesn't burn faster it gives a more complete burn which eliminates a significant amount of the carbon which you get when you burn a lower grade gas. I must disagree with my learned expert. Premium does not burn faster nor does it give a cleaner burn. In fact it burns slower. The only difference in Premium and Regular is the octane level. A higher octane provides no benefit whatsoever in an engine designed to run on regular. No more power, no better mileage, nothing. In fact if used in an engine designed to run Regular you may suffer harder starting.

Is it necessary to use Super gas?
Use exactly the octane fuel that is listed in your owners manual. The use of Premium Fuel in an engine designed to run on Regular is a waste of money and will provide no benefits whatsoever. Not more power and no better mileage. However the use of Regular in an engine designed for Premium will cause Pre-detonation or what is commonly called Pinging. Pinging may cause engine damage so burn Premium fuel if your engine is designed to use it. Some people will swear that burning Premium fuel will increase your mileage and provide more power. This is a myth, that just will not go away and is simply not true. Octane prevents pre-detonation and nothing more. The design of the engine is what produces power not the fuel you use.
