Amoco Gold is the only fuel blend that actually quiets a noisy fuel pump.

I have no idea how, or why, but it does. I played around with it for... I don't know, maybe 60,000 miles on an Audi 100. I thought it was a goner, but it was absolutely THE single reason that the fuel pump went silent. Any other gas would make it start it's racket again. Some fuels were better than others, but that was the bestest of the best.

Personally, I notice slightly better performance out of Amoco fuel, and I only use 87 octane. Second I like Shell, Mobil, etc. But I think that there's a lot of incest when it comes to fuel blends, and most of the difference is in the additives.
