I have been running top tier gas for quite some time <Shell mainly>, and am trying to figure out, which is better? Shell, or Chevron? I have heard that the 3800 takes a liking to the Shell V-Power, but I have also heard good things about Chevron with Techron too. Opinions? I also use 88 octane, so take that into account also <Midgrade around here>
Any other selections welcome too.
For the record, these are the current top tier stations, and the ones in blue are ones I have around here:
QuikTrip
Chevron
Texaco
MFA Oil Co.
Conoco
Phillips 66
76
Entec Stations
Shell
The Somerset Refinery, Inc.
Kwik Trip / Kwik Star
Aloha Petroleum
Tri-Par Oil Co.
Turkey Hill Minit Markets
Mileage Stations
Road Ranger
CountryMark
Chevron Canada
Shell Canada
Petro-Canada
Sunoco Canada

I mostly use Super America just because it'* convenient, 91 and an octane booster. There is one right across the street from my work and two and a half blocks from home.
After reading Dan'* post, I'll be switching to BP for the 93
Sidenote: Dan does BP have it'* own refinery?

I use whatever brand the local Stop & Shop buys. Mainly because I get somewhere between 5 and 45 cents off per gallon, depending on how much stuff I've bought in the stores.
Then again, I'm NA. If I've ever gotten a bad tank of gas, the engine must have just chewed through it normally.
