Top Tier gas question
Does any one know if Kwik Fill gasoline is the same as Kwik Trip / Kwik Star gas? I'm trying to find a top tier gas supplier in my area and I'm surrounded by Kwik Fills.

Fuel is definitely not fuel...cheaper gas CAN be worse than the more expensive counterpart... Kwik Fill is part of the United Refining Company, so here's what Google told me:
The United Refining Company is an oil company in Warren, Pennsylvania. The company operates an oil refinery in Warren that can process 70,000 barrels of oil into gasoline, diesel fuel and other petroleum distillates per day.[2] It distributes gasoline under the Kwik Fill, Citgo, and Keystone brands. The stores operate under the names Kwik Fill, Red Apple, or Country Fair.

Not quite. the additives or detergents does is not always a good thing.
detergents and additives for a normal car may be fine, but a high performance sports car that is driven properly, may be more problems.

That's correct. My dad talked to guy that runs a shipley oil place and said all gas is the same and it's only the additives that each gas company put in that make gas different. But me i preffer to stay at places like sunoco, shell, gulf.
