“Name brand” gasoline

---

My dad always told me to never use discount gas, so I never did. The 1 time I did I put in couple gallons to get me down the highway some to where I was going, as I couldn't find anything else. Next morning my fuel gauge wouldn't budge any. I go find an Exxon and filler up, and still wouldn't budge. Took it to a mechanic the next day when nothing changed and my fuel pump was now bad.

Frick the discount places, especially Racetrac. Not worth the 5c savings per gallon.

Now I will say I do wonder why Shell is so proud of their gas/additives, cause they are always 20c higher even when there are other name brands in the same intersection.
