that is good information, i appreciate you sharing your figures. one thing i did forget to mention is the 500 sel, while it is a euro model, it was actually delivered in israel, and i found out while doing the cylinder head rebuild that it has the lower compression engine. the engine was designed for countries with poor quality fuel. so i can run the low octane chevron, and the engine still performs well.
