Sorry Steve, but I don't. In fact I didn't even know they sold two grades - but could it be regular 
and bio-diesel? Certainly throughtout Western Europe there are two grades of unleaded - normal and 
super - but don't be misled by the seemingly higher octane values. In Europe, we use what is called 
the Research Method (ROM grade) while in the States you use another. Although I *think* the fuel 
quality is the same, I've heard it said here by those who know about octane measuring standards, 
that our 95 octane equates to your 91.
