I've never ever bothered putting anything but cheap gas in my vehicles.

I'm just checking in to see if that's foolish or as I have thought, not a problem.

Yes, the valve guides suffered from unleaded in my '62 Buick, so the lead I did ad back in.

These modern cars, not so sure. What say ye?
I use it in my GT 500 because I have a tune that requires at least 93 octane. I don't use it in my Explorer because the computer compensates for the lower octane rating. I wouldn't think you'd need it in your Odyssey as I'm sure the computer can easily make due with 87 octane.
