CHEAP GASSSSSSS!!!!
The Mohawk on Willingdon and Parker has some "Special" deal going on. Currently the 90 and 92 pumps have issues so 94 Octane gas is the same price as Regular!!!!  CHEAP!!!!!
That's 0.16cents a litre you save since 94 is 16 cents more than regular gas.

i've been told Mohawk's gass is the cleanest for your car and should fill up everytime before AirCare.

People say Mohawk and Huskey will get you the least mileage out of all gas stations. I like to stick with Shell.

Gasohol is bad for older cars because of how it burns, newer cars have more complex computers to run the methanol-mixed gas better.

That's because they have methanol additives in their gas to boost the gas octane, so you're getting less gasoline per litre than gas somewhere else.

Mohawk/Husky gas isn't bad and the 94 octane is refined by Chevron then Mohawk adds their own Additives. Just because it has Ethanol, there's only 10% ethanol in it which isn't even significant enough to hit fuel consumption rates. All gas has to go through transport Canada's regulations so most gasoline is fine for all cars.

So how much have you actually calculated that when using Mohawk/Husky gas it makes a significant drop in KM/L?

I'll stick with Chevron Apparently high ethanol gas isn't good for rotaries.

Never used Mohawk/Husky after I started calculating my fuel usage. But I did use it way back and IIRC it gave me noticeably less kms. Maybe someone else has done calculations...

Chevron FTW.
Also, running higher octane gas isn't any better for an engine designed/tuned for 87. In the long run may be worse as higher octane resists detonation and may not burn as cleanly.
