If so, Shell must be using better Ethanol. I continue to see at least 2 mpg better with Shell and Chevron vs. mom-n-pop.
I dunno where you got your info on using 10% ethanol in all gas stations for decades..... it's only been madadated as a substitute for mbte for the past three years..... and when ya go outside of N.E. as in last summer - mpg's went back to normal...... Since ethanol has been nmore costly to produce and only in greater supply for the sevderal year, why would a gas company add more cost into their product?
