Shell "v-power0" "Enhanced cleaning gas"

[GolferGuy]

Just saw this big elaborate commercial about how good it is and how much it can clean your engine yada yada yada -

is this really true is it worth it I am assuming itll be more? Sounds good my car needs that anything extra to get a lil pep going.

Any info?

gas = gas = gas = gas = gas

there are a limited number of refineries that serve a given area, many different retailers get "gas" from the same refineries

AFAIK

Yeah but each company adds a ton of stuff into the gas they purchase from the refineries. That's why they are different.

A ton of the same stuff under different names?

i shouldn't need a gas to clean my engine. i need a gas that dosen't gum it up in the first place.

Each company may get the basestocks from the same refineries, but shell may have a differnt additive package than chevron for example. There is, I believe a federal minimum standard for additives in gas, but all the stations have to do is meet or exceed those mins. The additives are there to help keep the fuel system clean.
