I use Citgo a lot. Back in NY, I could run 93 octane all the time...here in Iowa the best I can usually do is 91.

Depends on the prices really, 87 or 92 mostly. I avoid the mid grade here as it's made with ethanol. (What did you expect, it's corn corn corn and more corn)

Citgo is pretty good. I used that alot, and it's cheaper than other stations. I think that Sunoco 94 is a ripoff.

I will never use Sunoco gas in my TII...it's oxygenated and makes my car detonate like crazy. Is all gas in NJ still oxygenated?

Isn't gas only oxygenated from October to April?

Gas is no longer Oxygenated in NJ anytime of the year. I manage a station so I know. Sunoco 94 is worth the extra pennies. I can honestly say I feel a differance in power and even a smoother idle. And no I don't work for sunoco, I work for Texaco. Texaco is good gas but the ultra 94 is better!@ :bigok:

In (upstate) NY, Sunoco gas is oxygenated all year, which is why I won't buy it. When did they stop oxygenating it in NJ? I had some serious detonation probs coming home from the BBQ last year, which is why I thought it was.
