Sunoco 94!?
Saturday, July 25, 2009 12:04 PM
As of July 24th it's no longer availible according to my local sunoco that I normally fill up at. They switched to 87, 89, 91, and 93. I think I'll check another that's close to be sure.

So now my question is what dose everyone use in there cars? Is there any places not to use?

I've got the saab setup 8-10 psi with the gm s/c tune.

I'm on the same tune and setup as you.
I've run 93 since I've gotten the car. Ran 94 in it a few times and it didn't run any different

I use 94 and 100 octane ALL the time. I used to use 93 at Shell. I can only get 94 at Sunoco. And CITGO has 100, 110, and 116 here. You guys have CITGO your way?

Only citgo by me shut down, they had 110 race fuel but 92 was there premium. I've used 93 on occasion and it feels the same I've just used it since I had my modded 5 liter Lincoln. 94 + 10deg adv on that was 15 hp. Just got used to using it, kinda sad about it acutally. I feel shell or mobil would be the next most trustworthy stations.

I guess you could get crazy and convert to E85. That's 105 octane. But your MPG will probably go with it.

Lol, its because all the racetracks here in Ohio. That CITGO is on the way to the racetrack here in Columbus, it was smart of them to put race gas there.

Anything 91 octane or above should be fine fo the GM tune. That's what they tune it with. You'll be fine with 93 though.

I wish I had 94, 100, or 110 around me.

I guess its time to make your own high octane Steve.

In FL 93 is the highest (except for some 100 and 110, but I consider that race gas).

i run 93 octane from mobil if i can help it.

and im sure you know but never fill at a station that is filling their tanks while you are there... stirs up all the sediment and then you pump it and bye bye fuel filter...

dammit. I wish we had the 100 up here, I wanna see my engine go bye-bye.

Whaaat? No more Sunoco 94, dammit I run that in all the cars that need premium. I hope that's not the case with the local sunoco if not i guess 93 isn't that far off and really for most of us shoudln't be an issue.

If you want steve you can fillup at the Speedway at Maple Rd & Rochester rd, they have 100 unleaded Cam 2. The place that sells 110 by you is probably leaded and I woudlnl't suggest it.

At least you guys don't have to deal with 91 like we do in AZ...there's plenty of places to find 100, 110 and 116 (still gotta look and they're almost always out of the way or by the track) but there's no 93 at all that I've found in over 4 years.

108 Unleaded id the limit around me. But to get it, you hafta drive through three towns in the next county. At least it's Cam2.


Go beyond the "bolt-on".
