    cool blue 76

    Has anyone else experienced a higher price at the pump (76 stations) lately? The 100 I buy periodically went up 90 cents per gallon!

    i'm in torrance though.. anyone know of a gas station that sells 92 in torrance, or at least closer to torrance than pasadena?

    thx in advance..
    You are crazy, chances are they dont sell 92, they just never changed their stickers from back in the day.
    Don't argue with an idiot, he will drag you down to his level and beat you with experience.

    ^^

    well then they must have some outdated stickers because it says "92"..

    is it like illegal in ca or something? even when they sell 100 in some places? i don't get it.. seems like people think 92 is banned from ca or something.. i dunno, is it?

    You should contact 76 directly to see if that particular station does indeed use 92

    here it is exactly, see if you can see a differance in what Mitsubishi is saying about octane and RON.

    Octane Requirement
    "Your vehicle is designed to operate on premium grade unleaded gasoline having a minimum ocatane rating of 98 RON. If premium grade unleaded gasoline is not available, unleaded gasoline having an octane rating of 87 [(MON + RON)/2], or 91 RON may be used temporarily. However, the performance level may be reduced.
    MON: Motor Octane Number
    RON: Research Octane Number

    My favorite gas station, Alliance Gas at Sherman Way and Woodley Ave. in Van Nuys has raised the price of Trick 101 octane to $4.499. That is acutally a great bargain these days.

    But the good thing is that they have had that price for quite some time despite the gradual increase in prices of 91 and >.

    The good thing about race gas is it is made batches at a time. So if the price would change it would be like every 3 months. Not every day like our pee water 91.

    are you planing on getting a 55 gallon barrel of unleaded fuel ???
    i wouldn't mind from time to time buying some from you mark, as long as it's unleaded (since leaded fuel is not cat friendly :? )

    So with this MON/RON shit, our cars are supposed to run on 98octane? We drive that much of a specialty car that we need special gas? 98 is a big jump from 91. No? I guess I haven't really driven my Evo if I've only put 91 in it.

    Where to Buy Race Gas

    Just bought some Trick 101 at the DeSoto and Vanowen. It was like $5.20 a gallon or something. I'll check out the one on SHerman Way and Woodley. I did go to the 76 off the Chesboro exit (right by the on ramp to 101 South/East). It was only $4.49 for 100 octane. Seems like a better price to me :)

    What cities are those in? I'm not too familiar with the Diamond Bar/Walnut area. if you have a street address, even better!

    Alliance Gas at Sherman Way and Woodley Ave. in Van Nuys is at $4.499/gal. now for 101 Trick. I go there about once a week. Sorry about deleting the original post on this thread (and most of my other posts here, followed by :P ) but I got sick of being treated by an alien by the trolls here, led by alex_alex.

    There is a 76 Station in La Habra called Cosby Oil that is selling 100 for $4.999 as of last week.

    if im coming home from school, i'll usually just hop on the 110 up to Pasadena, the 76 station right where the freeway ends

    if im going to my parents house in San Dimas, i stop by the 76 off of Citrus and the 10 freeway

    if im going to Krispy Kreme, or headed up to a track event, i'll stop by the place on Sherman Way just west of the 405
