Quality of BP gas?
I'm thinking of applying for a credit card that gives discounts on BP gas. Anyone use it regularly? How's the quality?
|
in the UK, BP gas is very good, cant comment on if its any different in the US
|
isn't BP gas really just exxon/mobil gas in disguise?
|
BP gas in the UK is right from the north sea, the US might be exxon/mobil i presume, kinda far to send it to you guys
|
its called british petroleum. its big in indiana/ohio

do you guys not get 98 ron petrol over there? shell and bp offer that here, normal unleaded is 93
|
BP is the same company as Amoco now. Very good quality gas.
|
nope, the highest rating is 93 but you can get 103 octane gas(petrol u wanker) some places. 93 octane here is $2.76
|
@olds:
BP uses shell gasoline. and i use BP almost exclusively. @nsanity: and here in the states, we don't use the RON rating. we just use octane. 98 ron = 93 octane, 95 (6?) ron = 89 oct, and 93 ron = 87oct. |
Thanks for the answers, everyone. The card I now use for gas just cut their discount, 2% instead of 5%, because of the high cost of gas. I'm looking for a better deal.
The BP card offers a 6% discount, but it's only an introductory offer. Also says that when you use the card for other purchases, you earn credits for gas. If anyone knows of a card with a good gas discount, let me know. |
ah right, thanks for that Glyphon, didnt even know there were different ratings, thought it was all standard :p
|
Any MAJOR name brand of gas is gonne be better than a "Billys-Big Old Gas Stop" but I only give my cars :
Chevron - Techron is shown to work very well at keeping you motor clean and 'happy' Shell - If its good enough for ferrari, its good enough for me! Plus the V-Power is also a great addative. |
NMO,
What card cut their % ? |
My AAA card. Got a note in the mail.
|
maybe i'm thinking of Amoco? I think BP is really Amoco gas.
|
Around here BP was at least 10% ethanol. Everybody avoided them like the plague. They've closed a lot of stations around here.
|
BP was Amoco. Amoco was a premium brand in gas. Not sure what if anything changed when BP took over.
|
any name brand ( bp amoco shell chevron citgo texaco etc.. ) gas is fine. it's the independant stations you have to watch out for or those in the middle of nowhere that have had the same gas in their tanks for the past few years...
|
You mean like Bubba's gas station in the middle of the desert between SoCal and Vegas? I forgot the name of the place but it was creepy.
|
isnt it arco using BP or same company...or somthing like that.
question...is ARCO gasoline same quality as other brand ? |
I just filled up my tank with bp tonigt, i believe they use Amaco gas, they bought out Amaco. Personally i think Shell 93 octane V power is the best normal gas money can buy, BP is also high quality, but not shell.
|
The Amoco logo is next to the BP logo on the credit card ofer.
|
BP bought Amoco years ago, but took their time about remodeling the Amoco stations to the BP look. I've always used Amoco premium gas (it's been unleaded at least since the 50's, I think), and my neighbor who owns a BP station claims all the BP gas in the US is really Amoco - hence the little stickers on the BP pumps.
All the majors are OK - some petroleum engineers claims that Shell V-Power is the best. Whatever! |
