Car question

The car doesn't require high octane fuel.

Our regular corner gas station used to be a Texaco. But then Texaco pulled out of Virginia for some reason. So all the Texaco stations became "Liberty" stations. It's more of a discount gas station, but not significantly cheaper. I assumed it was just as good as Texaco. Around the same time, our grocery store began offering significant discounts on gas at Shell stations when you buy lots of groceries. We have a family of 4 and buy a lot of groceries. So most of our gas has been bought at a Shell, but in the last year or two, we have been buying some of our gas from this Liberty gas station on the corner. Maybe Liberty sells crap gas? I don't know. The dates roughly match the symptom dates.
