Non-premium gas
A friend of mine, and no it's not me, has run a few tanks of low-octane fuel through his vette. He is now experiencing a check engine light. The codes he's gettting is:
P0455
B0361
Any help would be appreciated.

Evaporative Emission System Leak Detected

Maybe a loose gas cap would cause the leak. That's where I'd start.
The B0361 is related to the dual zone HVAC actuator...I had this code and took it in to the dealer to get the drivers side HVAC actuator replaced...is he getting any strange hot\cold difference with the AC from driver to passenger side?

this is a very controversial topic, you'd be surprised how little the difference is in some stations, talk to the tanker driver next time you him/her at a local station

Gas is gas, it is the same from station to station. It is the additives they add to the mixture that makes them different from each other. They all get their gas from the same pumping stations into the truck, it is at the hub where the "additive" is added. History channel did a nice 1 hour piece on this.
I use Mobil and add my own Techron, about every 6 months, since there is no Chevron station with 300 miles of my house.
