Why is everyone so on edge around here all the time?
I agree with what you are saying here as it isn't referencing a particular brand. Stations (even in the same brand) can have differing issues with fuel as their tanks can be compromised in some manner (water, rust, bad mixers, etc.). Saying that KR can cause a loss of HP is absolutely legitimate. What I had a problem with was the blanket statement that all Shell gas was bad.

I was simply trying to make a point (that blanket statements were not sensible) in mentioning a tune...talk about being on edge...
