Two different E.P.A certification engineers told me to put nothing but Chevron supreme fuel in the new cars we built at Shelby American & Saleen Mustang. 1999 Shelby Series 1 & 1994 Saleen SR351. I have never had a fuel problem since then & no need to use additives.

Unfortunately, that is not an option here. I do stick with Tier 1 fuels though, Shell or Sinclair. The Sinclair is at least ethanol-free!

Same here, no Chevron or Texaco gas stations near me. I do the same thing as you, I get ethanol-free gas from Quick Trip.
