Speedway Gas

[goneby]

Anyone know about the quality of Speedway gas,they took over Hess gas stations in my area.Was just wondering if this is good gas,need 93 octane for my boat,always used Hess or Sunoco.

Don't know much about that brand although there are quite a few around here. Even before they took over Hess. I know most gas comes out of a central distribution and I see several different names on tankers delivering to stations around here. It's all a crap shoot anyway unless you get gas at the airport and even then there's no real guarantees. I just pay the extra for Non-E which is 89, reduce the timing 2 degrees and get more power anyway.

Is there a way to test gas without blowing up your sh!t?

I get Sunoco GTX 260 non ethanol and cut it w 89 from municiple airport. Good thing xs is only a sipper.. I used to have twin 260s it would cost an arm home refinance and first born for a weekend

You need an octane testing engine, and you can rebuild quite a few engines for the price of one.

I ran into this a few years ago when I stuck #5 piston for what appeared to be no mechanical reason that I could identify. I was using only Amoco premium at the time. I called Amoco in Atlanta just to inquire how I could determine it was actually Amoco premium fuel I was buying when I pulled into an Amoco station. They wouldn't even talk to me. I started using aviation 100 low lead after that and never had another problem. Pump gas is a crap shoot at best.
