Obviously not only Shell works well... but the point here is:

"not all premium gas is good for our 1!"

Do not assume that the gas in your area is good just because it has "higher" octane.

I want to also point out, many years ago, in another life... I was driving a FSB Tempo... I would buy no-name gas, at the same place for almost a year. Well it was in the shop and needed work bad. I was told that the gas I used had done damage. The mechanic told me that not all gas is equal and not all stations are good. Some older stations have bad tanks.

So not only choose your gas well, but be leary of stations. Not all are the same, just because they say "shell" or "BP" or what ever.

Ever get a long curly pubic hair on your egg McMuff...? She orders with no cheese. Her McMuff did. That's why she opened it! She doesn't eat breakfast at McD anymore. Hmmmm And never used the wod of free breakfast coupons.
