For the poster that said there is only a half gallon in the hose...this is a dated pump however there are many many feet of lines going thru filters and valves for switching to achieve 89 Octane...split of 87 and 92. If you are pumping 89...you can hear the clicking back and forth between the 2 grades to make 89 octane.

Shell and BP only for me. Many years ago I used Speedway until I noticed how dirty it made the throttle body on my '89 Sentra. After cleaning it up and using other gas it always stayed clean.
Around me the prices are all competitive so I can pay the same price for BP and Shell as I would for let's say Speedway. |

With single hose dispensers you may get a quart of previous grade gas before selected grade comes thru. More like .16 gallon.
Since gas is stored underground, outside air temps have no effect on it, doesn't matter what time of day you get it. Gets most of its heat while sitting in bulk tanks above ground. When its 100 outside and you are filling car, feel nozzle tip when you are done to see how cool gas is going into tank. If you get gas where it is stored above ground, then it can get a lot warmer. |

It also depends where the blend valve is located in dispenser, the ratio is set after all filters, meters and such. Its always interesting what people believe about gas dispensers.
