was up everybody, and Brian!! lol

i am currently running shell and bp gas in my R/T, just would like to know which is the best?

Brian, i spoke to you yesterday and order a gallon of aces IV, cant wait to put it in. During that time i forgot to ask you this simple question.

p.s i would like to add that Brian is one of the best vendor i have dealt with in a long time. i spend alot of time ordering parts and interacting with auto part stores, dealers, etc... and never got this level of professionalism.

Jason,

Thank you for the kind words. I will do my best to live up to them.

Anyway, I would suggest Shell first, Marathon second, and Amoco/BP third.

After them, Mobil/Exxon, Chevron, Valero, and last Sunoco. After that the value gasolines come to mind.

See what works best for your car. I have had people say to me that Shell doesn't work very well, but Marathon is much better etc. Same for BP and they move to Shell etc. My suggestions are based on Motor octane. Every batch of Shell Fuel has had the highest motor octane value which tends to keep from detonating.

Glad to work with you and looking forward to your success now and in the future.:beerchug:

I first was w BP because i've always been an AMOCO man, but when Shell came out with the Nitrgoen gas I started using it plus it was closest & most of the stations had the better price. I then switched back to BP & I swear my response is much much better, revs, growls & all.

Remember too that there are 32 different blends of gasoline that are potentially available that are marketed under the same station name in your state. It depends on where you live, what the local emission laws are, whether you are in an attainment or non-attainment county for PM and NOx. Sometimes if you travel outside the non-attainment areas you can get better fuels too!

I have included this chart for my particular area. Searching on the web can help you find where these potential areas are and where the better fuels will be. Stay out of the areas that are RED and Blue. Open areas are generally free to have better fuels. This is part of why there is a varied experience in fuels besides the summer and winter issues. http://www.noaca.org/nonattainmentfact09.pdf

Always trying to shed some light on the issues that others either don't know or won't tell you!

so if florida has no emissions, would this mean that all gas stations are non attainment?

or did i just say totally the wrong words?lol

Actually from what I can glean, florida is in attainment.

Seems the more manufacturing you have, the less in attainment you are especially in autos, steel, coal producers/users etc.

Just pieces of the total puzzle here.

Here in Oklahoma we have some stations that have "REAL" unblended gas. This is what I run in my Thunderbird and Ranger. I currently run Sinclair's fuel through those two. Shell also offers this gas at some of their stations, but I get better mileage with Sinclair's.

Since my wife drives the Charger it usually gets the blended stuff at Wal-Mart or Quick trip. I still need to find a way to sneak Aces IV into her car.
