Hi Y'll

Living in miami and watching the gas prices play the seesaw game (though in comparison to other places...)

My quest is is Cheveron premium better that Sunoco.
Both have some for of detergent in the gas to prevent buildup but I was just wondering if it wouldn't be the same to buy Sunoco gas and dump a bottle of Techron Concentrate in say every 4 tank fill.

Small poll what is the perfered brand used amongst you maxilovers?

 

From what I remember, there was a thread about cheveron gas and they only put appox 10ml of Techron for every 100gal of gas. Paying for Chevron gas isn't really worth it in my opinion. Costco gas baby! $1.87 for 91 octane.. and in SF thats cheap...

 

Shell man!!! Premium in chicago is an Avg of $1.99, But I get high Mileage with it, 345 Miles avg with 13.5 gallons, Yeah Shell

 

Whoa Whoa guys. I dont know about Florida, but up here in VA the frontrunners are Exxon and Ammaco.

 

Right down the street, there is a Chevron and a Race Trac right next to each other, and the Chevron is consistently exactly 2 cents higher than Race trac. Everyday. I save myself 30 cents

 

What? It's been $1.83-$1.89 for the past 2 weeks. Depends which part of the city I guess. I only use AMOCO ULTIMATE, a block from my house . I might try shell with the higher gas mileage crap...

 

I used costco or BJ's gas or whatever for around 10 cent cheaper than mobil, exxon, sunoco. That gas burns really quick, and I find myself at E at faster than normal. After going back to mobil, the gas burns quite slower and it has made me a believer.

 

AMACO SUPER PREMIUM
93 octane - $1.55!!!

 

i live in a very small town and gas prices have been sitting at 1.71 to 1.79 for sometime now, but 3 or 4 times a week we have a big grocery store that has been droping gas prices to 1.45 for premium. For whatever reason they are doing it, you better believe the place is flooded with cars, people waiting in line for gas. people pushing and shoving , fighting for position.

as for me im still unsure about putting it in the maxima, i just pass by and think, well no waiting in line over at chevron !

 

Amoco/BP 93 octane 1.35 gallon

 

I have a Amaco beside my home in Miami, but Just never opt to go any more...

If any one can find that article on Chevron 10ml per 100 gla please send me link. So I guess if I use sunoco and just dump some techron in the tank at fill up I'll end up saving on gas at premium fillups.

Cool running was fake :-)

 

Mobil 93 for me, esp w/ the prices here in Metro Detroit averaging approx. $1.70 - $1.89 depending on location for premium

 

Whereabouts in Chicago, Ni_Nos ? My bro recently moved near greektown

 

I just put Shell in mine and it seems to burn quicker than Exxon, I usually go with Exxon.

 

i usually go 2 Racetrack, only cuz its right by my house, lol.... nothing less then 93 octane goes in my tank....

my mother borrowed the car for a day because her old Izuzu Rodeo broke down, put regular unleaded in it and i *****ed about it untill i ran the tank down, lol.... lets just say she hasn't driven it since

 

Shell. It's 1.97 for premium the cheapest gas I found in LA.

 

2 weeks ago the cheapest gas I could find was $2.29 in Seattle.

Now it's somewhat better - ($2.03).

If I drive north about 20 miles out of the city it drops to like $1.83 for Shell.

(92 Octane)

 

Seeing all these prices it makes me feel better paying about 1.5 for premium here in S.A. TX.

 

Amoco/BP $1.65 87










i think its 1.65

 

1.63 for Premium 93 at Hess...

You are what you eat.
That statement does not only pertain to humans.

93 amoco
93 texaco
Price ? who cares ? only the best for my baby.

 

Used Mobil, but it was an okay gas. Citgo worked for me, but can't pass up the 5% Shell gas rebate

Paid $1.96/gal for Shell 93 so it's about $1.86/gal with the 5% rebate Getting 16-18 MPG with many short trips (drive to school with cold engine and by the time it's warmed up, I've reached school already =P).

 

costco in San Francisco doesnt have a gas station loser... the costco in daly city (far from down town SF) has a gas station, and its nots 1.87 when i was last night

 

geezus...calm down , its a thread about GAS... SORRY i said SF .. i meant SOUTH SF... and guess what, gas prices tend to fluctuate. Don't need to be so touchy about costco gas prices.

 

south SF...ewww, i hate south SF (i live there ) anyway, i got touchy because i want to know where i can get really cheap premium by my house!

 

Its ok, i know the stress of trying to find any Gas thats cheap in the Bay Area. Have you seen 93 around here? I've been looking around and couldnt find any.

 

its only 91... u know infineon race way? they have all gasses on pump (way up into the illegal ammounts of octane and even alcohal methane) give them a shot if your up there or racing there

 

Gasoline differs from station to station, even the same brand. I used to buy CLARK for a few months cause it gave me a better gas mileage than AMOCO and I always bought it from the same place. One day I went to a different CLARK station and bought 93 again. After maybe 5 seconds of driving the KS code popped up and my car went crazy and shut off. Ever since then all I get is AMOCO and now I'm thinking of MOBIL and Shell...

 

wow, thats nuts...ever find the KS problem?

 

Yeah it's ****ed. My KS has been dead since the day I got the car so I've been driving a max with 80% power all this time. When that happened it was the first time, and last, that the code actually popped up on the ECU without me checking it. It popped up together with O2 code as well so that had to be replaced...

 

dang...so the car stalled or what?

 

It started sputtering and shut off. I was close to my house so i drove there with the car shutting of every few seconds...
