Is it better or worse in any way!I've heard the diesel is bar far the best diesel out there, but what about the petrol!At 4c cheaper it's usually where I fill up, but I'm wondering if theres some downside to it.

I do road inspection work in a Toyota Starlet using 91, and find that the Gull 91 without the ethanol blend gets me consistently more km per litre than other brands. The stuff with the ethanol gets me about the same as other brands. I think all of the higher octane Gull fuel has ethanol, but be aware that some Gull stations have 91 with ethanol, some without.

Our local Caltex is next to a Gull.Gull is 4 cents a litre cheaper than other stations a bit further away.The Caltex here has matched its price to the neighbouring Gull.I go to Caltex with my 4 cent supermarket voucher and save another 4 cents.So I save 8 cents compared to stations further away from Gull and I go past the station every day anyway.

twice after filling up at a gull station my car died, only to find water in the bottom of my tank. I didnt assume it was from them at first as it was an old VL commy. But after completly removing it the first time and having it happen agian I got suspicious. Never filled up there again, and never had that problem again.

The only way is to try it out yourself, every car is different. Some like xxx brand fuel others hate it when others vice versa is fine.

All fuels except Gull are refined in the same NZ plant, but they all have to meet saleable standards, ergo,there are no real differences between them.

Yup all fuel is the same except for additives so I believe.
