Default Gasoline

Is there any major differences in gasoline brands? Would one type of gas make your car run better than another? Exxon, Citgo, Texaco,etc. Also who sells 93 octane, all i can find is 91. <img src="graemlins/camaro.gif" border="0" alt="[Chevrolet]" />

I work for BP(used to be Amoco) and we sell 93 octane. If you stick with the big 3 Exxon/Mobil,BP,and Shell you can't go wrong. Now the off brand mom and pops get their gas from big name companies also. It is the gas that doesn't meet the contract specs to be sold by the big name companies, but it is still good gas. Now after the gas gets to the small places you never know what they had in their tanks before. So hope that helps.
