According to information in a sheet I was given by a Dodge dealer,
ARCO is, BY POLICY, putting alcohol in their gas!!!!  I was advised
NEVER to put it in my turbocharged Omni!  Since Arco is the biggest
supplier to independents (7-11 and such) I also avoid these places.

The last Shell station I stopped at for a tank of SU2000 had a big
poster in the front window proclaiming that they GUARANTEE to protect
you from bad gas by selling ONLY Shell gas, and when they say SU2000
on the pump, it is SU2000 and not an independent gas that just
happens to meet the octane advertised.  I have not seen that poster
in any other Shell station.  

As to the differences, there is a Mobile station near my house that I
suspect is really independent.  I'm half tempted to get a gas sample and
have it checked.  My car was missing and when they closed over 
Christmas I stopped at an Amoco station and filled with their super
instead.  What made me suspicious is I got an almost 30% increase in
milage on that tank and the car seems to run smoother when stuck in
5th and lugging up a steep hill at 60mph without downshifting.
