93 Octane Local Locater?
I've been looking up where to find 93 octane gas in/near Nashville.
Found a few OK sites online, but none that I think are really great or even really good.
I did read the "Ask Tadge" response about 91 octane, but I really don't mind driving a few extra miles if there is 93 octane available.
Are there any resources that you all use to find 93 in your area(s)? Website/Local Clubs/Etc...?

I don't know about Tennessee, but all Shell stations here in Kentucky have it as do the Stations in Pigeon Forge and a couple of other areas I frequent.

Found a website that does list 93 stations, but the site doesn't seem great, and no Shell's are listed - the nearest one is a Pure station about 10'ish miles from me.

This should provide the Shell stations that have 93 octane fuel.

Is Tenn any different than SC? Virtually every station around here has 93. All the Shell and Quick Trip's (my personal favorite) have it. It's not like you are at any altitude in Nashville (597'). Available octane tends to be lower at high altitude but it's not a problem because the air is less dense so you can never pack as much air into the cylinders unless you have forced induction.

I don't think so, I have found a few local Shell's with 93 since this post, surprising that some are 91 and some are 93 -
I was also looking for Non-Ethanol in 93 and only found 1 close to me, but that is a different story.
Thanks for the replies.
