Stay away from shell gas. In my area bmw was or did sue shell gas because that gas was so dirty, it blew engines. My own car had to have the tank dropped and emptied, and cleaned before it went back in. All around my area, so I dont know if they fixed the problem, or not, but I avoid shell at all costs.
well, I heard that Shell gas like that from some of the other pumps can be dirty...but how the hell are we to know which pump has the cleanest? it's like a cat and mouse game now-a-days with gas. I will definitely try switching next couple of tanks.

Q: where did you get the plasma coils? and after you put them back in have your shakes completely went away?
