It would be interesting to hear from someone actually in the field who knows what they're talking about. I've heard similar stories from mechanics and other people who claim gas is junk now-a-days. However, its clear these people aren't doing any form of gasoline testing to see what is good/bad. Its simply what they think, or have heard from others. Perhaps it really is bad, or maybe its just the engines they work on. Who really knows unless you actually do controlled testing.
