Bob...there is no difference, unless you live in a city like Houston, TX with 
multiple refineries in the area.  In El Paso, we have Exxon, Mobile, 
Phillips, Shell, etc, etc....and all, that's ALL, of it comes out of the 
Chevron refinery.

By the way, I was told that by a petroleum engineer that it is against 
federal regulations to tamper with gasoline after it has been refined...so 
the old "we put in tetrahydrozoline (or whatever) " is BS.  These are just 
"marketing" words for ingredients in ALL gasoline.
