BP 93 ftw

there's a local place here, that seems to just have gas in their gas, no labels on the pumps about ethanol, or other additives, and the car seems to really like their gas

what's the differnce/worth it to use non-ethanoled gas. I have a place in town that advertises that they only sell non-ethanol gas and it is a bit higher than the 10% ethanol stations in town

High octane non-oxygenated gasoline give the most power. Ethanol has a higher octane than gasoline but lower heating value. So oil companies can miss target octane requirements with their gasoline but still sell it at the pump because the ethanol that's blended in boosts the octane to the required specs.

Track car gets 93 - Shell or Mobile
9-3 gets what it gets :lol: I think there's 93 in it at the moment, though.

I runs 53. the pump handle is red, and doesnt fit right in my gas tank, so i pump into 5 gallon and then put in my car. My car looks like this on WOT, idk whats wrong with it.

Check the headlight fluid. Common issue...

I think it might actually be a bad muffler bearing.

 

[slspf2]

I just filled up with 91 last night, but I occasionally put in 89 when I'm feeling poor.

 

[booyakasha07]

Sleepy, How do i flush the headlamp fluid? Is it getting sucked in my turbo at high RPM?

Whatever is cheapest on my broken b205 (cracked piston) until the I get the b204 in. On my Turbo Talon nothing but 92 (see image)

What I've found is that
Chev/Texaco (same company) best mileage
Shell ok mileage.
76 CRAPPY mileage
Arco better than Shell mileage (WTF it's uber cheap gas)

If you really want some good gas on a budget :wink:

Did anyone watch dateline a few weeks ago where they had a special in regards to gas. It showed tankers with all different names on the side filling up their takers at the same spot. The only ones that don't are the ones that have specific detergents in them like shell or chevron. In other words, alot of gas out there is the same, and marketing is the key to you and I buying them.

We think my brother got a bad tank of gas at Stop and Shop. While it was ultra wicked cheap at the time, hes got Zero boost now.

I've had 2 mechanics tell me Holiday is good.

Weren't you the one telling me to stay away from Holiday?

 

[christian900se]

My car had some tanks of 91 or 93 from various places like Shell and Mobil. I filled up with Sunoco 93 the other day and felt a difference immediately. The engine perked up a bit and gained some responsiveness.

Shell, Sunoco, or Sheetz, depending on where I am in the country. 93 octane at all times unless in the mountains, where 92 is maximum.
