Silly Question...
Under the gas flap of my '91 ZR-1 the instructions to use unleaded gas only are written in English and in French. Why the French?
everytime I drive the car I keep thinking of questions, most i can find answers to by searching old posts but this one doesn't seem to have come up before. |

Re: Silly Question...
Is this a feature of Canadian only cars or was it on all of them? Can't remember what it says inside mine (which is a US car)

Re: Silly Question...
Thanks, that is exactly what I thought. However these cars have such an interesting history I thought perhaps a few had been specifically built for the French market or something weird like that. I was secretly hoping I had some really unique and rare car that was worth six figures!!
