Re: Gas for HPDI

The only time I got water in my gas was at chevron. I use ARCO/ampm. I also use marine formula stabile, and seafoam in most every tank.

Most gas comes from the same place.....different companies put different additives in the holding tank.

They were re-released as the vixen by reaction innovations within the past year. Now it looks like they aren't replenishing that stock? There are still some places that have them if you do a google search you can find them.
