Hi All,

This past weekend I was driving back from Atlantic City to New York and stopped for gas in NJ in my 2010 SS. NJ state law requires that gas must be filled by a gas station employee. You cannot pump your own gas.

So I stop at a gas station and ask the attendant to fill the tank up with 93 (I am about 1/4 of a tank left). After a few seconds I turn around and realized he selected 87 and was about to start pumping

. I was able to get his attention and stop him but not before about a half gallon of 87 was already in my tank. He stopped and filled the rest of the tank with the proper 93 (about 3/4 of the tank). Do you think this could screw with the table settings of the car? I am not sure how sensitive the sensors are and if the car will detect the half gallon of 87? Do you think I should do a fuse pull just to be safe?

I never let anyone pump gas for me but the 1 time I have to (by law) this happens.
