When i was usign arco gas i got about 18 mopg but know i use chevron and get 23.50 mpg why is that?

Answer 1

1. The primary difference between competing brands is the amount of detergent the distributors add to it. Even still, the difference is generally minor.......

2. Different octanes may have an effect on Miles per Gallon for your car, and will most definitely have an effect on Dollars per Gallon. Using the same octane from different suppliers may have an effect on Miles per Gallon, and will probably have an effect on Dollars per Gallon.

3. For the Dollars per Gallon number, make sure to use the real price. For example, AARCO AM/PM adds a 45-cent surcharge per tank, which increases their advertized dollars per gallon by about 4 cents per gallon.

4. Experiment for awhile, and settle on the place that gives you the most Miles per Dollar.
