Cheap gas, with inadequate additives, can build up deposits on your rotors.....
There is no doubt that there is not enough dispersant additive in regular gas, the minimum that the EPA mandates has declined 50% recently, not enough to keep injectors, valves and piston tops clean. (and DEFINITELY not enough to keep the carbon off rotor faces!)
It is no secret which gas companies make the 'good stuff', the government keeps a list - these companies have agreed to sell only 'Top Tier' gas at all their outlets.
Chevron
Entec
Conoco
Phillips
QuikTrip
76
Shell
The good guys.... (http://www.toptiergas.com/retailers.html)
Sad to say, they are the ONLY ones you can rely on for adequate protection.
If you read the test procedures, you will notice that the regular gas with no additives will plug injectors like crazy, and build up a heavy weight of crap on the hot engine parts. :eek:
"Hear me now, and believe me later", I make gasoline for one of the companies on that list, at the most modern refinery in North America, and we run test engines 24/7 to check the quality.....fuel your '8' with gas that has adequate deposit protection - please!
