Isn't 76 not as good of a choice anymore since it was bought sunoco or something like that?

That crap you throw in your tank doesn't do nearly as much as the real stuff. I forgot what it's called but you tap into the fuel supply line, and block of return line so it doesn't go back into the tank.

This stuff Seafoam is great.. You suck it up into a vacuum line really slowly and it cleans up top end deposits. Sucking water (VERY) SLOWLY into a vacuum hose will also do pretty much the same. The additives in the gasoline we buy include water haha..

I've heard great things about Chevron from everyone but rotary owners. Nobody seems to complain about 76, and they are the only ones around this area (at least San Jose) that sell 100 octane (as far as I know).

Both my cars seem to run better on Chevron lately than 76. Not necissarily more powerful, but smoother.

IIRC, Seafoam uses kerosene to dry stuff out, while water is much safer. IMHO, if you can use water/steam it's better
