Anyone have 92 octane in their state? Along with 93?

[Vanimal]

Any of you guys have any gas stations that have 92 octane? Giant & Wawa are the ones that i seen who carry it. I usually ALWAYS run either 93 Shell, or Exxon in my 2010 S5 4.2L. But every once and a while the fiance will nag me she has $0.90 cents off gas from Giant food store points. Now normally if it were a measly 20 cents id brush it off. But at almost a dollar off per gallon which would bring it from $2.40 per gallon to $1.40 for 92 octane has my attention "at least to run it for 1 tank".

Like i said most places around me have 93 and i always use Shell first if not Exxon, which currently they are about $2.53 a gallon. Obviously i know most places in Cali only have 91, & safe to even run that. But whats your thoughts on running this 92 every month to month and a half or so if i normally always run 93? I am probably overthinking this, hell my car was a California car up until 30k miles. Been in PA since. 2010 69k miles, no rough idle or any "feeling" of carbon build up & pulls hard like it should. Probably overthinking this, but just trying to keep up preventative upkeep with the best gas i can to keep that carbon flowing & that $1,200 carbon clean job in my pocket

Actually just put a small bottle of Redline complete fuel treatment in her last week during my oil change. She runs and purs like new. So whats your thoughts on throwing a tank of 92 for $1.40 per gallon every month and half or so if i normally run Shell/Exxon 93?

I just don't want the carbon gods to ever catch up with me

SD haven't seen any higher than 91 sucks! carbon cleaners and gas stations are in collusion

I frankly don't even understand the 92, its only Giant and Wawa that has it out of all the gas stations around me. Everyone else has 87/91/93. I think Sunoco has a 94 Ultra around me.

A dollar off gas per gallon is hard to turn down once a month/month and a half.

You just have to give it a Italian Tune up more often . I did that this week on a fill up of 93 Shell with their Nitro and the redline complete cleaner bottle i tossed in.

87/91/93 interesting. We have 87/89/93 in New England. Random how it varies by region.

The Giant's near me in VA are partnered with Shell for the fuel savings as there aren't many Giant gas stations around here. I'd check to see if that's the same in your area. Personally I dont see any issue with using 92, I used it in my car until I got the 93 tune file installed.

Yeah I don't get it either I wonder if they just throw 91 or 93 in the tanks depending on whats available and say fuck it close enough we'll call it 92 lol

I hear ya, I just try and stay consistent using Shell, or Exxon 93.

The 92 shouldn't be that big of a deal every other month. I don't even know how she accumulates 90 cents in savings, obviously it's over time. But it's like a game to her lol. $1.00 of per gallon I won't argue.

I don't understand the 92 either.

Thank you VERY much for that Shell being partnered with Giant tip. I had no idea, there aren't many Giant gas stations around me, only 1 in fact I've seen. I checked their website you were right. Gonna try to scan my rewards thing at Shell. Without you I had no idea! :)

Cheap gas is cheap because those kinds of gas retailers do not use better or more detergents in their fuels. If you really care about your car, I suggest just gassing up from one of the Top Tier Gas Retailers. Otherwise, all gas is the same.

Agreed, but will say my car runs like shit on Mobil 93 with my 93 tune.

I hear ya, but as far as "cheap" the 92 gas from Giant about the same price as Shell. I believe right now Shell 93 in my area is $2.50, and Giant 92 is $2.45 a gallon. I was more referring to using it one fill up every other month.

But i hear you, i ALWAYS run the Shell/Exxon 93 always.

I guess filling up once a month with Giant won't be an issue especially if you are a regular Shell/Exxon (Top Tier) Gas customer. Try it out. Worse case, if you feel something of using Giant gas, just put in a bottle of Techron or VW/Audi Fuel System cleaner.

Funny, all I see here in WA is 92, cant find 93 to save my life (so forced to run 91 program of my tune instead of 93).

I lived in FL for 29 years.. and they always had 87/89/91/93.. of course only three choices but always 87 & 93 at every gas station I've seen..

and then I moved to California this past summer, and i've only seen 87/89/91.. never seen 93 here lol..
