I tend to stick with Top Tier Gas. It meets a higher standard for the additives that help keep the engine cleaner from carbon deposits, etc...

you can read more at

Top Tier Gasoline

It also lists the brands that carry top tier.

I never had any problem with my car pumpimg gas at Sam's, 93 Premium.

And on the way and back to ZdayZ was whatever Premium gas you could get.
