I usually use Shell because it's on the list of fuel GM recommends and the only one near me. Here's the list:

I use the regular octane, also recommended by GM for the V6, but once in a while I put the higher stuff in there.

where ever I can get 93 octane, that's where I buy.

lewylew · 06-08-2010, 08:32 PM

Sunoco 93. How can anybody be buying BP fuel with all that oil they are letting loose in our oceans and shore lines.

Why the hate-on for Chevron?
My baby is going on a steady diet of Chevron 94 (unless I'm in Alberta, where there is no Chevron, or the US where you run 93)

svrds10 · 06-09-2010, 04:05 PM

I use 87 octane from Arco or Vallero on my SS.. Nothing but the best for my baby :P....

J/K I use 91 at Shell or Chevron. California does not have 93 octane unfortunately

Nitrosniffer · 06-09-2010, 04:32 PM

Can anyone from Cali answer why you can only get up to 91 there?

Let's not forget who we're really hurting when we "boycott" BP. You won't even put a dent in BP, but you will put the little guy that owns the station out of business.

Texaco 93

HaZe_X · 06-11-2010, 10:13 PM

Dare I say it? Flame suit on!...I use BP 93, Sunoco on the very rarest occasion.

GQ4Life · 06-11-2010, 11:23 PM

from test with knock retard monitoring I think Sunoco 93 is the best and I prefer it but I use Mobil all the time because its accross the street and sunoco now is more then 10miles away
