Top Tier Gasolines
The February issue of World Refining magazine has a "news" item on page 10 that states (quote) "Shell joins ChevronTexaco and ConocoPhillips as refiners announcing that their gasolines meet the Top Tier standard". This is the detergency standard set out by BMW, General Motors, Honda and Toyota. Clean fuel is a good thing.

I got a tank full of dead fish and their enviroment instead of a Tiger! Four others at the same station and grade of fuel. The dealer that handled the draining and repairs says that they are seeing more fuel related problems latley. With the price being what it is you would think you could get fuel not water. 3000.00 in repairs, two weeks of no toy.They took care of it, but it did not make me very happy!
