In all seriousness, there was a point my IAM dropped to .38
Coincidentally, the I filled up with Chevron that tank. It was the one right off of Idahoe and the 60. Never again from there...

So bad gas has been an issue. I know most of the guys in the FI V8 crowd like QT.

I've been told by Clark Turner that he can tell when a turbo Subaru has been running Chevron long term... Partly by the power loss.
I've only (if possible) used QT since. On phone I am. Therefore, if mistakes I make, Frank Oz blame you should.

Odd that of all the well known gas "brands" that QT of all places seems to be a top option. What's the word on Circle K?

Qt is more convenient for me. Looks like I will be going there henceforth. Shell on baseline and McClintock has been running well for me too.

After researching around a little (totally not scientific) I settled on Shell V-Power. Then later I found this video:
[ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WTaBngvsPrc"]Fifth Gear Fuel test - YouTube[/ame] Although they're mainly comparing UK gas and whether or not it helps non premium cars, I figured it did pretty well. I've been happy so far and there's one close to the house.Found the thread I found that video in: http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=58748 http://www.autoblog.com/2014/02/19/h...nology-center/ http://www.autoblog.com/2014/02/21/s...ier-gas-video/ |

I would be curious to see how 87 ran in our cars. I wonder if it's about pre-detonation in the engine or if the mfg wants you to have the best power.
Personally, I've been buying premium fuel for the last 8 years. I never put anything but premium into the 2.5i Subie I had |

So I'm replacing my current all-season tires (Eagle GT W-rated) with some michellin Pilot super sports. Anyone know of anybody that has a screaming deal on a set in 225/45-17?
On that note, does anyone want to buy a set of Eagle GT W-rated tires? Only <5,000 miles on them, no repairs or even noticeable wear. Make me an offer. |
