I was useing "Shell" brand premium gas, 93 octane. My 08 k9 would cough, sputter and die sometimes at low speed or idle. Talked to Rodney at Rodney's Cycle House about it. Told him what I was useing. He said switch to Exxon or any other brand and I shouldn't have any more problems. Dam if he wasn't right. What brand does everyone else use?

Citgo 93 octane. Citgo is the only brand gas (Florida Tampa Bay area) that comes pre-blended at the refinery with the additives for each grade, and barged here that way. The rest are blended at the gas holes (where tankers fill). I was a gas tanker driver, for awhile. My S&S 107 Pit Bull, runs great on this gas...:up:
PS: If you should see a tanker droping gas, or just left a gas station, buy somewhere else. All the crap at the bottom of the tank, gets stired up.

I use Hess 93 now. Was using a local station, but the dog started running rough at idle and stalling. No problems now after switching.

I just let the rest of the bikes fill up on the low use 93 then gas up. I WILL pass them in a few moments !!!!:roll:
