93 Octane - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Anyone know where to find 93 octane around here? All I can find is 92. I am specifically interested in the North Everett/Marysville WA area.

it's all over snohomish and king county... you have to go to texaco, chevron, higher grade gas stations

Well I have checked a lot of the big name stations in Marysville, and they all have 92 octane at best. Hopefully I can find some in Everett.
93 v 92 probably won't make on bit of difference. Still I would like to know where I can gets some 93. I am also curious as to what kinda gas other areas have. For example, what octane does Portland have to offer? And since you can't pump your own, how many times do you have to remind the attendant that you need premium.

I only have to tell them once. I've seen 94 at a couple stations here. I'm always amazed that the price of gas is cheaper in Oregon and we pay people to pump it...Huh?

There used to be a Shell in Bothell that sold higher octane gas, but I am not sure if they still do.

I checked the Chevron in Oregon and I dont think it was 93 octane, concerned about that as well.

I think I have checked every big name gas station in Marysville, and premium is 92 everywhere. I hope Everett or Mukilteo has some 93. At least it beats the 91 in they got in Cali.

Troutdale, off Frontage road. Right off 84 I know there is a station. Besides that one I "think" I've seen another station somewhere in Beaverton. But that may have just been me dreaming.

good to know, thanks.

My car has been making the chirping cricket noise. I filled up wit ethanol free gas and that seems to have cured the problem. I got the ethanol free gas at a 76 station in Marysville by the Winco

This site seems pretty accurate. I found the one in Everett on broadway and the one in Marysville. Both of them have 92 octane with no Ethanol.

Which brings up the question--is it better to get no-ethanol gas from a no-name station, or E10 from a brand name place?

Until the fuel pump issue is dealt with by Toyota / Subaru I would go with no name ethanol free stuff in these 86s.
