For the "clean engine" fanatics, this page may be of interest. Click on the "Retailer" at the top of the page for a list of gas brands that sell "top tier". I generally use Super America gas, but may switch to Kwik Trip. :? My apologies if this topic has be discussed priviously.

In Minnesota, I thought there was a law that required all gas to have some ethanol in it during certain months of the year. Can't remember if that was winter or summer.

The real key to this is the additives package that top tier gasolines are required to contain. Even if you did have some ethanol in your gas, it'* the additives that make the difference...supposedly anyway.

I think there are only a handful of stations that offer it in the Twin Cities area. I like to use that in my boat, but have a hard time finding it. Are you saying all stations have to have non-oxygenated?

Ahh crap, I thought that Speedway has good gas... That'* who I usually go to... Damn.
All you can get around Newark is BP, Sunoco and Speedway. I'd always prefer Shell over anything, but the closest one is 20 minutes away

I think Speedway is the same as SuperAmerica is here in Minnesota. I don't have any driveablity issues related to gas, but Kwik Trip is always the same price as SA so I'm switching.
