anything 93 octane

 

same here

 

i use chevron when at all possible i try not to go to the non brand name more cheaper gas stations cause im no gas specialist but ive seen the same gas truck dump the same gas in all the differet octane pumps without turning any nozles. kind of shady if you ask me.

 

davidgmil...that is pretty shady. And I highly doubt the gas place is willing to sell premium for the price of cheapo.

 

Anybody know where to get anything higher then 91 at the pump in southern cali? preferably 909/951/626 area.

 

I use 50% Chevron 91 and 50% Trick 101.

 

A good buddy of mine has dyno tuned almost all the gas brands down here. He has found that the Mobil/Exxon gas showed up to a 40hp gain more than others. The next best was BP/Amoco....and the absolute worst was V-power, by Shell, to my surprise. I figure as long as you stay with the major brands..bp/amoco..mobil/exxon you should be good. I've only ran Mobil ever since I heard about it.

All gas is the same until each major company starts adding stuff to it. Mobil uses the best detergents according to a couple of sources so until proven wrong thats all I will use...

 

all gas comes from the same source...
if there are major differences between say sunoco and mobil then WTF?
i pick the cheapest station available...
imo all gas = gas (same **** different lable)

 

I use 15 octane from Bubba's Gas & Go.

 

Your right all gas does come from the same source..but realize that it is then modified by each company to its own standards using detergents and other add ins. These add ins do not matter for any stock car...but if you have FI, you'll only want whats best. In the end its a small price to pay...

 

sheetz, sunoco, BP, the north east/mid atlantic people know all about sheetz..

 

yeah these are also the guys that first started to hyke up their prices in columbus ga after huricane katrina

 

If the emissions laws in California are similar to AZ (and from my understanding they're actually a little bit more strict), you're not going to find anything higher than 91.

 

Citgo, 'cause I LUVS rubbin' W's nose in it.

 

Chevron 93 octane

 

sunoco 100 octane, i love florida

 

chevron is my personal choice...

 

Anything but Arco!! 15 times in the last 10years busted for excessive levels of H2O in their gas... My last car used to ping occasionally, but only with Arco...

 

More so than fuel economy (gas mileage), you should examine which gas is best for you car.

Go to: www.toptiergas.com for the latest info (under "retailers").

There was a previous thread on this. So far, the "approved" (i.e. "higher quality") gas stations are:

QuikTrip
Chevron
Conoco
Phillips
76
Shell
Entec Stations
MFA Oil Company
Kwik Trip/Kwik Star
The Somerset Refinery, Inc.
Chevron-Canada (B.C. only)


Before any criticisms are levied, you should know that I take this "advice" with a grain of salt. I'm not sure how significant the differences are.

 

Nothing but Mobil ( which you forgot in your survey as well ). It has been consistently terrific in the Z.
