Pump gas

Has anyone, who uses pump fuel, noticed any difference between the various major brands of 93 unleaded, or is all the same quality.

I believe it will vary from region to region as well as time of year...I think I read a report that said there were nearly 100 different blends of gasoline for the US alone?

When I was sixteen, 260 was cheap and plentiful. Times have really changed, wish I could go back for a little while.

Your right Rob, a local distributor told me the same thing. He also advised not to use aviation fuels in land based vehicles. Said it has a whole different additive package and is blended much differently for the 'thinner air' where planes operate.

I have used aviation fuel blended with Sunoco 94 with no problems. I see no differance when blending with racing fuel from the track.

We have a Sunoco down here that sells 110 leaded right at the pumps. It is used by the air boats that run through the everglades. Popular with the gearheads too.

By comparison it is cheap these days @ $5.25 gal.
the price has been the same for years.

I mix 1/2 *110 & 1/2 *93, and my engines are very happy.

I don't know if there is a difference, buy i try to use Mobil or Shell, had a bad knocking experience at a BP/Amoco. Had only used them, but the quality seemed to lag.

Loads of places to get AV100 low lead, but I don't really like it. I had also heard that AV fuel was not good for the cars.
