I bought gas from Wal-mart once… never again. I burned through that gas 50-100% faster than any other gas I used.

Not going to make a bit of difference if your gas has 10% ethanol in it…

Even though it was 30 years ago, across the street from where I worked was a fuel distribution center, on a daily basis, I saw trucks with different gas brand names all loading from the same storage tanks… In other words, it was the same gasoline being distributed to various gas stations spread throughout the region

Always informative and entertaining, thank you , great job. Helpful if the local town weights and measurements enforcement agency provided a local gas station quality grading system.

The gas is supplied by 1 refinery per geographical location. That supplies all/most stations regardless of brand. The depots mix the additives per customer (stations/brand requirements) as it's being loaded on the tanker truck to deliver to whatever station. In my area imperial oil (esso) has the main location and pipeline to supply both shell depot, valaro depot and their own. Some fuel does get shipped by rail but most by pipe. Imperial oil then supplies gas to shell, Canadian tire, costco, esso and a few other smaller brands. The only difference is the additives. (Generally)

The quick the pipeline terminal (refinery truck loading rack) can deliver branded or unbranded gasoline .. The difference and how that it's done is the basic gasoline is the same but with branded gas usually near the loading rack there is a smaller tank ( or Tanks) containing each companies own package of fuel additives and this is added to each companies branded gasolines the cheap no name gasolines usually don't get these additives added to the gasoline

Interesting! From now on, I would just go to the gas station convenience for the fill up. Soon, I will replace my current fleet to electric. Say bye bye to my local gas station. 🦅🦅🇺🇸

When I make a road trip and I see a arco selling gas at 3.30 a gallon vs shell at 4.59. Sorry I'm going to arco 100/100 times.

I stopped buying gas at Certified years ago because it kept gumming up my carburetors. I also won't buy gas at Walmart for lack of performance. It just isn't high quality compared to brand name.

If you see the big refueling truck at the gas station wait at least 24 hours before filling up there. Wait for the sediments and dirt stirred up by the new fuel to settle down at the bottom of the tank.

Believe it or not there are still quite a few gas stations out there that do find refineries that so gas that does not meet standards meaning no detergent packages meaning it will make the engine in your vehicle dirty the you pump it for example if your in the state of Colorado sells gas like this where it has very little detergent compared to if you went to a show or BP gas station to buy gas meaning that the lower detergent fuel will cause your engine to get dirty faster And in some cases really good high quality fuel such as shell V power or B p's premium grade fuel that has extra detergent in it over their regular grade fuel will actually slowly clean your engine over time Where you save money on gas in some cases you will be spending the extra money on fuel additives to help clean the carbon deposits off of your engine's internals Cheap no name gas could very well mean dirty engine need to use fuel additives all the time good high quality brand name gas crude mean it will actually clean your engine without having to use additives.
