want to tell me how much gas is at the arco near the fair grounds. im about to drive up there

should be somewhere around 3.90 for premium...i never use arco, pure chevron and shell

ughh i really dont want to drive up there. traffic is going to suck getting back

i was recently talking to a mechanic while waiting for my car and he said that with all the money people save by using arco or costco gas, they end up spending it all on fixing their car because the gas is so cheap and has alot of bad crap in it that messes everything up. also, you get better mileage with better gas ;)

I use Arco.

^ just like turbo cars our cars are detenation sensative...keep that in mind when using cheap gas...misfires cause cels

Shell and 76 are the only thing that touch my 8. Off of Santa Ana by the 55 the Shell prices are usually decent.

I do like the $3.63 gas from that arco for the civic though :D

I still use Arco ever since day one... and oh yeah, it gave me the highest dyno at the SoCal Dyno Day.

west siiiiiiiide

don't use arco - it might make you wanna sell your car :lol: jk jk

no but seriously - i avoid arco usually because my car acts funny when i do versus if i use my standard shell -

really? i use arco if i have cash on me but usually chevron. i would never put anything less than 91 in my car though.. that would be a bad thing.

just go to gasbuddy.com

My CEL will turn off when I run 76/Shell hard enough.

The one time Arco was put in my car (not by me), it came on within 25 miles. Though inaccurate I use this as a measure of how well the gas is burning/clean it is. Could be wrong, could be right. Either way I'm catless and haven't seen the CEL in over 3,500mi.

Actually 87 gas will burn more cleanly than 93.

No one likes knock either! I'm not on an oem map either. :squint:

Lets not let this get into an octane debate either, I ran 89 for quite some time but am back at 91.

Shell, 75, or Mobil is the only thing worthy of my car. :D:

what about chevron?? they have techron!! :lol2:

Yep thats what I use, it adds 10hp.

all the gas price are pretty cheap now..just dont pull gas near a freeway,it's like 10 cent more then other places.

a while ago, i read an article saying that they change the price during the week and different times during the day. cheaper after midnight and on wednesdays..i think

fr my experience, the price is change every Thursday night because of the weekend. Most my the gas station around my house will have a price change Friday morning.

^hmmm...i'm gonna watch for that now...

prices are changing throughout the day today due to Hurrican Ike hitting the Gulf today. (lots of refineries there)

should've filled up yesterday :banghead:
