Which gas station do you use?
Not that it really matters but it was something I was thinking about for some reason and interested to know. I know many people that can uses 91 octane wherever and whenever it is available but if you typically use 93 which gas station do you usually feel comfortable going to?
Most gas stations that has 93 I've seen all say they contain up to 10% eth., some advertise other adders to help clean the engine, so does it really matter which station you go to? |

Exxon 93. Burns cleaner for whatever reason in both of our 6.2L engines than other local brands sold and leaves little to no residue on the exhaust tips.

93 premium octane from Shell, Mobil or Exxon (in that order preferably).
I used Sunoco 93 in my G8 GT but it would throw 'check engine' codes whenever I did. Dealership told me it's because Sunoco contains a lot of alcohol %.

Usually Murphy USA (Walmart). I used to use Shell or Chevron but have used Murphy for well over a year with no negative effect on performance. It's perfectly good gas.

niccce. I typically always go to shell and get 93. The conoco here is the only station that has 91 and it's almost always out so I go to shell and get 93. and If not shell then I go to Chevron.
Anybody like Texaco? |
