the whole notion that the gas at different stations is different is almost laughable, at least around here.
we see the trucks/tankers lined up at port everglades with chevron, shell, BP, hess, and no name carriers, etc. and they all fill up from the same hose that comes from the same tank.
all of those companies have different marketing for the same additives. do some real research to confirm this.
Tom Hoover told me exactly the same thing over 30 years ago. Yea, THAT Tom Hoover.
In theory, there is no difference between theory and practice. In practice, there is.

I started with Shell 87 octane in my truck.
Keep track of the mileage for a few months.
Moved to Mobil and it dropped.
Tried BP 89 octane and it came up quite a bit.
Then QT started selling 93 octane in my area. I decided I would give it a try. My gas mileage went more than I expected. So I have been running QT 93 octane in my Truck and my Duster for months now.

That's absolutely the case in California.
