I appreciate the context in these responses. I can see where a problem
might lie in zooming off the interstate/turnpike to quickly gas up.
Having just had a turbo replaced due to an "oil sludge" problem, (Audi
covered it via extended warranty) I will tend to err on the side of
caution in the foreseeable future.
