I know we had filters at Hyvee Gas (one of those gas station in a supermarket parking lot dealio) because the pumps were S-L-O-W when the filters were clogged.
We'd have to call up this company to come change them out.
But I did notice something odd when I worked there. We would get our gas from this fuel supplier. They would always deliver us different brands of fuel. You couldn't tell unless you looked on the invoice since it was all delivered out of the supplier's tankers.
Like one day we'd get Phillips 66, next day Exxon (which there were no stations in my town), BP, etc.
I don't know what effect mixing different brands of fuel has (like the mixing of their additives), but I tend to avoid it now...
