I guess some of you are not reading the information on the link I provided. I stated that storing gas for long periods of time was one of the many benefits. There are many other benefits to buying tier one and long term storage is ne of the least important reasons to buy tier one. I suggest that it may be beneficial to read about all the benefits of tier one before making a decision about it's benefits. One thing I had wanted to accomplish was to dispel the myth that all gasoline is the same but I guess that will not be possible to do when people choose not to read the information that was provided to support my statement

Well Boo hoo to you. The difference is OCTANE rating and most people do not need to read about it to understand! And just what is "long term"?

I don't understand why you are getting angry with me over a simple discussion about whether all gasoline is the same.

Gasoline formulation is a lot more complicated that octane ratings. Increasing octane allows for higher compression without causing the engine to knock. But if you intend on keeping your vehicle for a long time it would be good to have additives that will protect the valves. Before lead was taken out of gas as an octane enhancer the lead also helped to protect the valves, I does not matter what you choose to believe or buy, I was providing info for people that are concerned about gasoline additives that will help prolong an engines life. If you don't like what I have to say I am fine with that but others have expressed their appreciation for sharing the information I provided.

As far as your comment about long term goes you can either read about it or ignore it but please do not dismiss it as inconsequential. The people that use gasoline powered engines to haul heavy loads work their engines pretty hard and in some cases additives can save the cost of an engine rebuilt or replacement.
