Read the many previous posts about this. Add maybe 26 cents per gallon to the price Liberty posts. Discount gasolines are the most expensive as explained previously.

To know more and to fix a rough idle, do gas mileage for every tank. Also posted previously. My experience says it takes two to four tanks of the good stuff to undo damage caused by discount gas.

And again, discount gasolines increase the nation's imports of foreign oil by 8% to 14% (numbers based upon my calculation; increased imports made obvious by your MPG numbers).

Major gasoline manufacturers are selling less gas because so many Americans even believed Saddam had WMDs - by ignoring facts and numbers. How many still do not learn from history? Notice how a majority are so easily decieved even by discount gasoline.
