Texaco consistently has 1 octane higher gas here in Florida, so whenever I can, Texaco. Otherwise; used to be Shell when they were the only station that didn't charge for air. I tried to reward that as much as I could. Then they started charging for air, so now basically any of the big station chains or Costco, when I'm there...NEVER Citgo because of Chavez.

Is it Seattle or what? Every station around here seems to have 92 octain for their premium gas. I know the car is supposed to have 93 but I haven't found a station that has it.

Depends on what I can find. Always 93 octane minimum. I avoid places like Citgo, Cumberland Farms, "Go-Go-Gas" and other generics likes the plague. Around here I usually find Exxon/Mobil. Shell, and Sunoco.

Its a petroleum distillate that can be added to raise octane rating. Toluene is another. To do so you have to add gallon (s) unlike the STP type octane boosters that are so small in volume that they raise octane levels in 1/10's i.e. from 91 to 91.1

We get no higher than 91 in CA. Barely works in my lawn mower.
