Yep, it is all the same since one refiner pumps his stuff in one end of the pipeline and takes whatever comes out of the other end. Only difference is what they may add to it in the way of chemical modifiers. Another thing consumers don't typically know is that there are only two tanks in the ground... Regular and Premium. All the "mid-grades" are just mixes of the two tanks blended at the pump. Tricky huhObviously, we have a sight problem.........
Gasoline is like mouthwash or oil filters. It all comes from the same place, or in this case, tank farm and gets distributed to different brand filling (end user) stations.

It is much harder to ignite premium with low compression pistons when it's cold for sure. I thought it would be cool to put dads octane booster in the lawn mower as a kid. After getting my ass beat the **** thing wouldn't start. Have to admit though, between that episode of emptying the tank and carb myself and taking watches apart ... I developed an interest in mechanics. Funny how those things shape a brain.
Mine said the same thing, probably the coolest thing I learned from him was how to set the timing with a vacuum gauge and test driving for the ping. We fought alot, but when he asked me to be his teaching assistant I knew he liked me. Good times.
