They basically babysit the product from pipeline, onto the fuel tanker and into the storage tanks at the gas station to ensure it is never mixed with the fungible gasoline that we all get wherein all the brands add in their own additive pack.© 2023 All Rights reserved.Īt Canada 247 our purpose is to help people find great local businesses like dentists, hair stylists, restaurants, bars, hotels, local businesses. Also, interestingly, Amoco Ultimate (water clear) is the only gasoline that is separated from all other refineries gasoline. But it is also countered by detergents so I doubt you have to worry any more whether or not you are getting the clear stuff or not. The reason it is clear is because they refine it the extra step to remove all the fluorocarbons, the yellow residual which makes the gasoline appear yellow that has the tendency to leave deposits. you may be getting Amoco Ultimate that isn’t clear, but they guarantee it’s performance just the same. I’ve called them before and they said they do make crystal clear (they call it water clear) 93 octane however, it’s provided based on geographical locations. It also earns cash back on purchases in useful spending categories. I live in Central Illinois and the Whiting Refinery is up further north near Chicago. It charges a 0 annual fee and comes with a competitive ongoing discount on fuel purchased at bp and Amoco gas stations. My friends and I use to use NOTHING but Amoco Ultimate 93oct. The price was low, but I'm not sure if the cost per mile was low. It was the only brand of gas where I readily noticed the gas gauge dropping faster than any other brand of gas. It was worse than the supermarket brands. Amoco In October 2017, we announced the reintroduction of our long-standing Amoco brand to the US fuel retail sector around a century after the first Amoco service station opened in Minneapolis, Minnesota. The BP/ARCO I've tried here on the West Coast was junk. If you wish, figure the fuel cost per mile to find the true cheapest gas, not just the lowest cost per gallon. Try each locally available brand and see which runs best in your engines-and one brand might run better in your Ford and another brand might run better in your Chevy. And, gasoline formulas in some regions of the country change as the seasons change for cleaner emissions.įorget the brands from the old days. The gas is different because the refiners have found ways to get more gasoline from the crude oil. In 1957 all the divisions of Amoco were consolidated into a single company, renamed the Amoco Corporation in 1985. Amoco created several new plants and claimed various new oil fields in this time period, as the company prospered in the post-war boom.
Regardless of brand the gasoline is different due to emission regulations requiring cleaner burning gas and more consistent formulation of the gas. With an exploration office in Canada, Amoco was now an international gas company. Very little relationship to gasoline now compared to gasoline thirty years ago. the white gas is however a variant from that. I have watched stations purchasing gas local, most of them have the same tanker dropping gas at their tanks, I'm sure some additive packs get changed around etc, however I don't see much difference, and never have in gas from station to station. if this gas is the same gas as it used to be it's outstanding gas, but not needed on every tank for engines rated 87 octane. The pump handle had a clear glass with small balls ( two or so) that you could see the gas going through, it was crystal clear as posted above. I would run the white gas in the summer time, and at times in the winter, it was outstanding gas, and gave me 17 mpg in a low geared hot rod if I stayed out of the throttle.Īfter that I ran it in fuel injected engines made for 87 octane every few months as a cleaning, in my opinion this white gas so to speak works far better than the fuel injection cleaners at the time that could be purchased.
I ran it at the time in a built 350 with a "full race cam" high compression heads, other odds/ends, however the motor was setup to run on 87 pump gas. I remember the white gas, and the advertisement.
