Arco gas is exactly like all other gas in your area. It all comes from the same pipeline and may have been manufactured by Arco today, Mobile tomorrow or Conoco the next. The oil industry has been run this way since before my Uncle retired from a Arco pipeline terminal near Buffalo NY 25 years ago. The only thing trucked in is the ethanol that's mixed with your gas.

ARCO is garbage gas anyway. Engines run crappy after awhile unless I throw some Techron in it. I will only use "top tier gasoline, such as Chevron, Union 76 or Conoco-Phillips 66. No ARCO, Exxon or Shell for me.
