Default dont buy shell gas

im sure alot of u have heard about the shell gas haveing high sulfer levels. its causeing the fuel gadge to malfunction. it creates a sludge on the sensor so it appears that your tank has more gas in it than it really does. im sure that its not good for your whole fuel sytem especially injectors. they say that premium gas was not effected but i had noticed hard starts with shell and i switched to sunoco and have not had a hard start yet. if u guys have had any probs let your dealer know and if there is a prob shell will pay for it.
