Co-op Fuel quality

[My login is Henrietta]

Surely the fuel at the filling station to which the Co-op is attached is Texaco fuel, not supermarket fuel?

When I first started driving (longer ago than I care to confess) I was warned off Texaco petrol. By all accounts it doesn't seem to have improved.

The co-op don't  do fuel. Not very good at food.

We used to have a Ford Ka that was very sensitive to supermarket fuel. Fill up at just about any supermarket (Asda, Tesco, Sainsburys etc) and it would ping and miss. Fill up at BP or Shell and it would be instantly cured. Don't really know why this would be but a quick Internet search suggests it is all down to additives (that are not added to supermarket fuel). All I can say is our old Ka could definitely tell the difference.

Never buy fuel there if I can help it - it's always a few pence more expensive than other garages.  And if the quality is poor as well, that's another reason not to use it, I guess!

I appreciate that this not the right posting topic but I failed to find how to post a new topic and I hope that admin will help me out. [helped out - Howard]

Has anybody been experiencing any issues regarding the fuel quality at the co-op filling station in Marple?
