Thumbs up Gas

What's everyone using for gas in Canada? I previously used Shell 91 as it had no ethanol but heard rumblings that since they launched the 93, the 91 and possibly the 93 have 10% ethanol now.

I avoided it with my F30 as the engine would have a subtle shake on idle with 10% ethanol gas but no shake when on the pure stuff.

Ive always used 91 at Shell for my BMWs - never had issues and frankly if youre collecting Air Miles - you get a freebie on the gas eventually as well. So it works out.

Used shell solely on last 2 cars. 335 and 340. Cars ran great never any issue. First 335 used petro/esso and car had tons of issues..maybe placebo but I stick to shell.

Have always used Shell 91 for any car that required premium. I've noticed slightly improved mileage with that too. Not sure yet if ethanol has been added though, but if it has, I don't know if there are any options left without it.

Can't get 91 around here, so 93 it is.
