If that's the 12oz bottle, I think Walmart has those for $5.

Thanks for the Auto Zone tip OP.

Thank you. Just had my car state inspected and an oil@filter changed and it's been hard starting lately ever since filling up with Sunoco. The Chevy technican who does corvettes only for this dealership told me to switch to a top tier fuel, but to put a container of 'Techron' in the tank to clean up the system a little.

I saw the sign this morning. They just ran this sale about 6 weeks ago so that is suprising. Too bad I have two 20oz and two 12oz bottles already sitting in the garage.
