Almost all gasoline is delivered to
retail stations from tank farms, where everyone's product is pretty
much exactly this same,

Up here, it IS all the same.I know this for fact due to a close friend
who trucks gas.
I can see the flames coming now from the Dwarfs, doubting my validity
again, after the " Tall Ships " thread.



If you wanna see the fanbois explode, start a thread asking them where the
Amsoil refinery is located....(c;

There isn't one. It comes from the same tankfarm Quaker State does....and
everyone else.



As for gasoline .... according to this chemist, it's all in the additives.
Furthermore, he points out that crude from which gasoline is refined varies,
even within a specific brand.

He has an interesting recommendation; change brands every 5000 miles or so
on a rotating basis to get the benefits of the different brand additives.
