yea there are absolutely none near me lol, even if there was one right over the nc border i would drive to it every time, plus its only like 10min away

 

wanna talk about raising the cost of ur tank, my uncle has an old 30 ford, he puts premium in it, the offset ethanol stuff, and lead additive. thats expensive, luckily its a weekend cruiser

 

Yeah that does get expensive.

 

MMO works for me. I have done a lot of experimentation running tanks of gas with and without MMO and recording my MPG, and my MPG is consistently 1.5 to 2.5 MPG better with MMO than without MMO. MMO lubricates the fuel system and works as a mild fuel injector cleaner. Red Line SL-1 Fuel System Cleaner every 3000 miles keeps the injectors really clean.

I have a very noticeable improvement in power with MMO in the gas. Its upper cylinder lube properties improve compression. I can tell a big difference with and without MMO in my gas. Plus my engine runs quieter and I have a nice smooth even idle with MMO. I also add half a quart of MMO to my oil about 500 miles before I change the oil as a cleaning agent.

MMO works very well for me and for $3.77 a quart it isn't very expensive at all. I add 2.5 ounces to every 10 gallons of gas I buy, so a quart lasts me 4 to 6 weeks depending on how much I drive.

That's good for you.

I don't want to:



So I am done.

 

i also got to texaco more then anbody. the one buy me is full serve and
is usally 30 cents cheaper then the self serve hess. s**** i don't mind pumping
my own gas but im not going to pay more for it lol. no 100% anywhere near me either.

i'm might try the mmo stuff once buts its funny you do sound like a sales rep.

 

There r still full service gas stations!?!?!?!? I wouldn't like those I'm picky about letting friends and family drive my truck lol

 

Ha you guys are funny how into which gas station you go to. I go to the cheapest plan and simple. They all have ethanol in them now and it's all the same. There are really only a couple companies that make the gas so to say there is a big variation from station to station is kinda pointless. You're not going to get 2 mpg better with Texaco then Shell or whatever. You will spend more money trying to use certain companies then you will ever save. Hell you might even be losing more then you think.

I go to the cheapest one. Never have I ever had a problem doing so. It just so happens that is usually Valero or Irving by me.

I run 91/93 now since I have my SC's.

We don't have Wally World gas up here...

 

Just an article I found. I know it's hard to disifer who is right and wrong (especially over the internet) buy if you google " is all gas the same " this is the general concensous

Experts Say Choose the Cheapest Gas
ABC NEWS ^ | 10-29-2005

Oct. 29, 2005— The cost of gassing up is higher than ever these days, and one money-saving option may be to opt for generic gas rather than name brands.

Even though the average motorist with a mid-size car could save up to a $100 a year by filling up with generic, many people wonder about the quality of no-name brands.

At one station in Maryland, a Mobil station was charging $2.62 a gallon, 20 cents more than the generic Liberty station across the street.

A joint study by ABC News and the Maryland State Comptroller's Office examined the difference between name brand and generic gas. Chemists at the Maryland Fuel Testing Laboratory conducted a battery of tests: They verified that the gas was formulated correctly for the season, checked for contaminants like excessive sediments or diesel accidentally mixed with the gas, and they ran the gas through an elaborate engine to ensure that it was all the same 87 octane level.

Here's some good news for consumer: Regular and discount gas are basically similar.

"By and large, it's one and the same," said Bob Crawford of the Maryland Fuel Testing Lab. "You will find results will almost mirror each other. There are going to be slight variations, but gasoline is gasoline."
The primary difference between competing brands is the amount of detergent the distributors add to it. Even still, the difference is generally minor: The EPA requires all gas to have a minimum amount of detergent to keep a car's engine clean.

"You would be paying for brand loyalty, primarily," said Crawford, explaining why brand name gas costs more. "Some people feel more comfortable dealing with a particular brand."

Crawford, who has been studying fuel for 36 years, uses whatever gas is the cheapest. Some cars require premium gas, but generally, regular is fine.

Brands like Mobil and Sunoco keep their gas formulas secret, but Mobil says it adds at least twice the amount of detergent as generic gas, and that it adds the same amount to all three grades of gas.

 

See my hole thing is I don't pay attention to my MPG per station it just seems that my truck runs smoother on Texaco than any others. Hess by me just flatout sucks u can here the engine pinging
