Hi everyone,
I normally use the premium gas from 76 but now i live in las vegas the 76 here are expensive so i was wondering if getting premium gas from places such as mobil, Arco, sam's club,rebel oils, terribles oil, or speedee mart will effect my engine?

thanks guys

 

no there should be no ill effects unless you go to a gas station that cuts their gas with water (which i think is more typically done at "mom & pop" stations). otherwise though gas is gas. the only difference is the additives each company uses (detergents mainly). mobil and sam's should be just fine. i don't know much about those other companies.

 

Mobil you should be good to use. If you can find a Shell or Chevron, those would be good choices too. I had problems in my Maxima when I used Arco before. Ended replacing the EGR valve twice. Could have been bad gas that I used and it was two different Arcos's. I try to stay away from the mom and pop gas stations.

 

Trunks FTW


Sorry, carry on

 

You should be find. I use a lot of different gas when the light comes on. It's what ever gas station is in sight to turn off the light.

 

yeah i use alot of different gas stations as well when my light comes on then i end up there i use sam club costo and shell mainly sometimes 76

 

^ wish I had better luck with a cheaper gas like costco's...unfortunately, it makes my vq ping like crazy..

 

is 76 the octane indice?? because i put only premium 91 fuel in my car and the gas is really expensive here 1.40$/L or 5.299$/US gallon i think and never had any problem in my Maxima and G35

 

76 is a gas station

Where we live SamsClub is the only place that has 91, the other stations including Shell only have 90. I've used Sams almost exclusively except when traveling long trips where I must buy from just one or two stations. My 2 Gs have always ran great on the Sams gas, and it's usually 5-10% less than other stations.

 

also you can just download "gas buddy" to your computer or smartphone and find out where the best prices are. thats what i do.

 

you guys are so lucky to fill youre G35 with 60$

 

in california gas from costco and arco have a high ethanol content- i have noticed decreased acceleration and mileage. not sure about nevada gas though.

HOLY..

1.40 to 5.29 .. our dollar value blows!

 

thats $1.40 per LITER and $5.299 per GALLON.

3.79 Liters per gallon:

3.79*1.40 = $5.306

The US has really cheap gas compared to the rest of the world.
