[s-cars] Fuel Brand Comparison

[Tom Green]

Doesn't Duggans Oil on South Santa Fe still sell high octane fuels , 
Chevron now, I think ?
What are they selling 100 octane for now ?  That might be a better 
alternative than the
mix your own.   Just remember. the 118 octane with the big nozzle is 
for NASCAR stuff
with lead.  ;-)
