I have had customers who fill at a local supermarket station and have had problems every time. They go somewhere else and the problem subsides after another tank or two. Anecdotal at best, who knows how much exaggeration is thrown into the mix? Certainly plausible but far from scientific.

I also remember when my Dad volunteered for the police department driving cars to the radio shop or mechanic. They had stopped using Murphy USA (Wally World/Sam's Club gas) due to what their garage called excess sulphur content, which according to them had caused some injector and fuel float problems.

I guess I take this all with a grain of salt, but there almost HAS to be some kind of truth to different branded fuels having different traits. I have never had "bad gas", nor do I remember my parents getting any in all the years they have carted me around. For now, I stick to Chevron/Texaco - good reputation for quality, and priced right alongside everyone else here. Plus even if Techron doesn't actually do anything, it can't hurt.
