I just put 11 gallons of mid-grade gas into my 14 gallon tank at the EXXON at
1601 Wisconsin Avenue, across from the 7-Eleven in upper Georgetown, and the
minute I drove off the lot my engine started pinging very loudly and steadily.
Their gas is obviously watered down or way below the stated octane level.
