One thing to be on the lookout for is general age of said gas station. I don't buy gas from an older facility. Jobbers can mess up and put the wrong fuel in the wrong holding tanks as well. It happens more often than one might think.
Find a station of your choosing and monitor logs periodically to see how the car is doing.
DirtyD's problem isn't fuel. He has too much timing in his tune for the fuel he is using. My recommendations via PM were to reduce timing and richen it up a hair.

Ditto. Probably the best thing you can do (regardless of refinery/company) is to use the more crowded stations. Stations off the beaten path dont get as many deliveries and fuel sits longer etc.
