My '98 900 Turbo runs fine on regular gas, but gas mileage as well as performance falls off. Gas mileage picks up by 2-3 mpg by using mid-grade 89 octane instead of 87 octane... The first _major_ service is 30,000 miles. The 15,000 mile service is essentially an oil change and tire rotation. --------------------- John R.
