Super Gas
Munich - AAFES-Europc customers need to be
careful when pumping gasoline into their vehicles
at ESSO A. G. stations.
At the beginning of the year, ESSO began conducting a test on a new super plus unleaded (bleifrei) gasoline at more than SOO filling stations in
Germany. The new gasoline has a U.S. octane !eve.I of 93, which is the same level as super le.aded
gasoline.
"The present unleaded coupons available
through AAFES are not permirted to be redeemed
for the super plus unleaded fuel since it is a violation of customs regulations," said Walt Kania,
chief, automotive branch, AAFES-Europe. "In addition, customers arc not permitted to use the present coupons and pay the difference in price.
Those tanking up with the new fuel will be re,
quired to pay the full pump price in DM.
