All of these years I had never heard of Top Tier fuel. I have been putting high octane in my car in order to get better results. Now that I know about Top Tier I am going to make sure that I use that every time. From what I found out for the average car it's more important to have clean fuel rather than high octane. All gasoline is required by law to have cleaning detergents. Top Tier gas simply has more detergents, often 4 times more than what is required.

Years ago when I was a flunky in my grandfather's Texaco service station, we used to pnumatic air spark plugs cleaner that would essential sandblast the plugs. Those that had a long life remaining we would put back on the shelf to be Reused. Then again, back in the day most cars were still carburatored and would foul plugs when Carbs were out of adjustment. I guess that means I'm old!

Always depends on the car, most new cars that just take regular dont need best of the best. But I stick to Shell 99% of the time unless there's nothing else around. Never once had any fuel issues, why switch to something cheaper and risk an engine. Just not worth it for me personally

2014 Honda civic- I put marathon gas in my car and it runs “so so” I put shell in my car and it runs a lot better. I’m not sure why, I have read others who say there is no difference and maybe when your car is newer and fewer miles it doesn’t matter, but I feel like if there’s carbon deposits the gas you get does matter. I’ve been keeping up with shell nitro and it’s been helping my car but it’s not instant results, have to keep using it for a little while before you start to notice a more pronounced difference

Hi Nick, Best to look for stations that are top tier, I'll put a link below, but JMHO I think some gas stations use more cleaning additives than others. www.toptiergas.com/fuel-stations/
@garycarbonneau499
@garycarbonneau499 4 ай бұрын
It's all about the additives. People will tell you that gasoline all comes from the same depots. That's correct....it's what is added to the tankers after they are loaded that makes the " Top Tier" brand name fuels a LOT better for your engine. A clean carbon free engine is more efficient in all ways. Octane is only good to stop engine knocking which is related to engine compression. Excess octane additives rob power while costing more. I have been involved in Motorsports for 60+ yrs.

Always use cash when buying fuel for my vehicle. Station a block away from me is suppose to give 4 cent discount when paying cash, but they seem to go thru employees and it doesn't always happen. The two places that have E15 sell it 5 cents cheaper, but I think it should be more. But know of a place that gives 5 cent discount when paying cash, and the pumps have the top tier sticker on them. Switched to that and the fuel gauge needle seems to go down slower. Guess I will stick with them

Buy the cheapest gasoline and toss in a bottle of Techron once in awhile. Gasoline comes from the same place then the companies add there formulas. For what you pay with the extra money to fill your tank with top tier gasolines you could buy a full bottle of Techron each time.

Shell V-Power is the best gas. I only put this gas in all my vehicles because it keeps my pistons & valves clean. If you want to go further run your gas level to 1/4 tank and put in a bottle of Lucas Deep Clean Fuel System Cleaner because it will be more potent, run your vehicle close to empty then fill up with Shell 92.

@@rdg091 techron was a chevron product. Maybe it has changed in the last 18 years. Let me give you and others a situation I had with a customer long ago. He came in and complained of a cold start problem. Not starting right up and making a light rattle at start up. Looked things over and found nothing. I asked him what kind of gas he used. He said texaco because his friend had a station. Now this customer was an old no nonsense dairyman. So I told him when his car was near empty to get chevron. He thought I was crazy. Really. I told him I would pay for the first two tankfulls if the sound and startup didnt get better. So with glee he left. About 4 days later he called and with a bit of wonder said the noise and startup issue was gone. He still had some scepticism. So I told him to go back to Texaco. So weeks later he called. Everything was back. So again, switch to chevron. And he did and no more issues. You have no idea how many cars we had "fixed" by having customers switch to chevron. Now I have had folks call me on this and to be honest, I dont care. Customer was happy and that is all I cared about.

I think there is not much value in this form of testing. A more instructive comparison would be to run equally carboned spark plugs IN the SAME car with the DIFERENT gasolines for about 100 miles. I think the heat and explosions involved in the engine would have a LOT to do with the cleaning ability of additives. Surely the gas companies designed and tested their additives to work best INSIDE the engine. IMHO!

For whatever reason my 22 year old V8 car does NOT like any of the top tier gasoline whatsoever. It will start sputtering and shuttering away when it gets any of this additive shit burned in the combustion chamber. Funny thing is, I run cheapo gas in it and it runs pretty well, and recently I changed the head gaskets, and there’s no gunk or crusty shit on the valves. So I’m not sure why it loves cheapo gas but sputters when using top tier fuel. Idk, I think older cars are used to running cheapo gas and not this new additive gasoline.
