anyone elses gas pump really slow in their Z's at cheveron pumps?

or is it just me?

 

Its the pump junior.

 

ahahahah what a thing to post. Yeah Chevron pumps take foreverrrr

 

adding to the randomness of this thread; anyone else follow a similar schedule for gas?

I use Chevron for 6 months at a time then I switch to Shell for 6 months at a time, back to Chevron. .rinse repeat. I've heard their additives help fight off certain buildup and create their own kind of build up and that swapping the gas you use every so often helps combat this.

am I just stupid?

 

i don't use gasoline, i pee into my Z's gas tank.

 

you mean like this????

 

all those "additives" and stuff are gimmicks. as long as you use a high-quality gasoline everything will be fine. shell, 76, texaco, chevron, are the only stations i use. other than my local safeway when its cheapest because i know they use 76 gas

 

pacific pride 93 octane is what i use

 

sometimes I can't fill up a full tank on my car... it stops pumping in between Full and 3/4. Don't know what it is, quite annoying sometimes

 

LOL

 

I almost always go to Shell *shrug*

 

Do I have to pull out all of my data over multiple years?

I get the best mileage out of Shell gasoline, which is marginally better than Chevron. Chevron now owns Texaco, so it's the same additives.

I got horrible mileage from Arco gas (it has never touched my Z, but I used it in my SpecV as a test), and even worse from whatever gas was at Safeway.

I used Conoco/Phillips/76 gas on a trip back east, and while they are rated as a "top-tier" gasoline, I got 10% worse mileage using that than I did when I could find Shell/Chevron/Texaco.

YMMV, but I've got about 7-8 years of records (5 with the Z).

 

Good Info PDX Racer! I am going to stop using Arco!!!

 

You seriously use Arco? ewwww. lol

 

My brother used to only use arco regular gas in his old VW rabbit and it was constantly clogging his fuel filters. That gas sucks.

 

They should pay you for talking us into using shell
i'm almost out of gas.. i'm going to shell after class

 

arco is 1 part water, 1 part octane booster, 1 part dirt.

 

1 part poo. I typically use chevron because its the only place I can drive up to without taking out the bottom of my car.

 

thanks guys for making me feel shitty. sometimes i am low on $$

 

sometimes most people are low on money, they just realize the 2-3$ they save at the pump isn't worth it. : P
