Why do you think you have a bad tank of gas? Is you vette running crapy? Maybe something else!
What octane rating did you get? There are so many different octane boosters out there! I hae never used any of them, I always fill up with premium fuel.

Additives will not rejuvenate bad fuel.
Try running the same hill with your old chip before you jump to conclusions.
So who's chip and whats your mods?

This stuff works great but it has lead so if you have cats they will get ruined. I dont know if affects the 02 sensor
the stuff you find in auto parts store is ALL junk
Toxic stuff dont touch it with bare hands

TORCO
Enough Said
http://www.torcousa.com/torco_product/un_acce.html
I run this in my 650HP DD Harley F150 making 21 psi of boost on 93 octane. 1 quart to 25 gallons yields about 105 octane. I also use Meth Injection to ensure that under boost I have plenty of octane.
I have run this in the 90 vette recently to see how it helps by using 91 octane and about a cup to 20 gallons - no noticable ping yet.

Those two products seem to make similar claims would be curious to compare whats in them. May give the Torco a try after Im out of this stuff Im using. sure makes a difference can run 8 deg more timing than with premium
