[QUOTE="Flyer58, post: 439693, member: 18629"] No shill alert, just saying what I've seen. I'll agree with Chevron Techron. I've been using that in a diesle tractor for decades. When you say "Clean fuel will do the same" I'll agree but again after four tanks with the Lucas in a 2010 Equinox and my 92 YJ I've noticed a distinct improvement with cold starts and idle. They seem much smoother now on cold mornings. As for the gas station gas there is a huge difference. two tanks of Kroger gas and the mileage is down and acceleration is worse. Walmart is no better. About five years ago I read about the Top Tier rating given to gas to attain the most efficient performance, A new Suncoco station had it and I didn't know just how bad my car was running until I switched vendors. Living in the Houston area I know many people in the gas and oil industry and they use to say regular is regular regardless of the station. Once you upgrade to mid or premium you'll notice a difference with their proprietary additives like Techron blended in. I think with the Top Tier ratings you'll see various regular octane fuels now have a higher level of quality and some additive in them also, with this rating the various companies are now meeting the new standard. Five years ago there was only a few station listed. [URL]https://www.toptiergas.com/gasoline-brands/[/URL] No blue smoke from this LOL. I only add 3 oz's per 20 gallons, not mixing in a quart per gallon. For a 2016 Silverado with GDI... Ugh. There's DIY stuff out there or pay the dealer $$$ to do it. [/QUOTE]
