Well, the local Shell stations sell a good volume; and I have yet to see a dirty Shell station. Murphy has been known to have water-in-the-gas issues. So has RaceTrac, and this, despite the volume of fuel they each sell. I have heard of several persons having their gas tanks drained because of it, at the expense of either Murphy or RaceTrac.
