The pumps I normally use say Bp/Amoco on them. I occasionally use Exxon and Chevron.

I also buy 93 octane, guess I should have mentioned that.

Same here 93. Maybe I just got the bottom of the tank at a gas station?This really surprised me when I
poured it out.

It was probably the Shell. That's bad.

I don't know? From all these gas/fuel threads shell has been held high by others.I'll stay running shell
for another 10,000 and do a early change on the filter and see if I get the same results.
