It varies a lot from company to company. I buy all my gas in the US but only from Mobile, Shell and Irving tend to make my car knock happy.


I was only buying from Shell given that they're reputed to be the best here and Shell 91 in Canada (Ontario, anyways) is THE gas to have (0% ethanol, etc.). It's what all the classic car guys use, etc. I use Petro 94 here, and I have had WAY better success with it than the Shell crap I bought down there. My car was knocking more than a Mormon in a new neighbourhood.

I'l have to try Mobile next time I'm down there!
