I was involved in making gasoline for 35+ years. Your Sunoco guy is off base. There is not a big difference between gasoline grades OTHER than the octane number. What with EPA and similar government regulations, there is little scope for putting crap (or less put re stuff as you say). As I said in another post in this thread, the differences are mostly the percentages of each component in each grade. A lot of myths still exist about gasoline, it seems. The problems do arise when you buy from a discounter - the gasoline cmes out of the refinery/pipeline in good order but can be quickly contaminated by a "sloppy" operator. Some use their tankers to move gasoline one day and diesel the next - not good for either product. And then many don't keep their storage clean and dry. That's enough of my raving.
