I still try to go find a Shell, a Chevron, a 76, etc. than lets say... Rotten Robbies That name doesn't make me want to pump gas there. No disrespect to them...

Don't the bigger name gas stations have additives in the gas to justify the higher costs. i.e. chevron has techron and 76 has propower. I thought that you are getting the benefit of fuel injector cleaners and other additives that the cheaper stations like safeway or costco don't offer. Also, Vishnu reccomends using 76 as they have seen less knock with 76 than other fuels. Not that vishnu knows everything, but I think they are a reputable source of info.

i bet a lot of people know what they are doing, its just whether or not they are willing to help you. its a small world man, if you dont treat your customers right, word gets around man.
