ny's gas was supposed to change as of the 1st, no more MTBE
because of some lawsuit, which is good news except now they are going to charge more. |

Whats the deal with shell and texaco? They are changing some and not others around here. Did Shell buy Texaco, or texaco, shell or did they just merge.
Sorry for the off topic. |
At this seminar the Shell rep was from Jersey. She said that the octane would be higher but that there is something to do with the Government frawning upon the change. Why? She could not answer. Well all the owners were instructed that we could tell our customers of the higher octane and since I usually practice what I preach I changed my sticker to 94. If I can tell you verbally then I should be able to post it.
If for any reason the level is below what I have stickerd then I get a state fine. That protects my customers and Shell would be in a bind by instructing its independent dealers in its training program. As for as the SUNOCO Race 94 it wouldnt be the same because the race gas does not have detergent in it and has higher phoshate& sulfer which is good for motor but not for environment. Only its ability to resist detonation is the same. |

My station is a Texaco station. Shell, Texaco and Chevron are now all one company. My shop still flys the Texaco flag, we are not required to make the change to shell. If shell would give some good incentives to make the change, I would. But they don't. So for now I am still texaco, even though we pump shell gas
