Note - I know there are different additives that can be added...according to tank delivery driver.

14. Myth: I buy premium grade gasoline because it has more and better additives to keep my injectors and valves clean.

Fact: All gasolines sold in the US are required by law to contain an additive that will keep injectors and valves clean. Tests are required and the additive must be licensed with EPA before it can be used. Most companies use the same amount of additive in all grades of their gasoline.

One thing to note about unleaded gasoline that uses a percentage of ethanol. If you buy gas that contains ethanol, do not buy Heet or any other water remover. You're wasting your money. Heet is nothing more than alcohol. Ethanol is alcohol, and ethanol gas has a higher percentage of it than 10 bottles of Heet.
