GAS Prices in Canada

[Chris.S.]

$1.50 per gallon in my neck of the woods in the USA. How does that equal out to what you guys pay per liter?

Divide by 4, so about $0.375.

Came down to $0.844 here today....

Ouch....

 

[Mark_88]

We hit $0.714 the other day...I thought it was going to dip below 70 but it started going up again...

 

[Chris.S.]

We came dopwn to 79.9 this am....

yay.

 

[Mark_88]

Been hovering around .73 for the last couple of days...filled up for less than $15 on just under a half tank...was costing me over $25 for that much...woooo hooo~!

The price MAY dip down a bit more before they cut back on supply...but then it will most likely go way up again...

 

[Chris.S.]

Holding steady at 77.9 here.....

Was 73.3 last week here in Halifax. But went up to 75.5.

 

[Mark_88]

Wow! 68.9....last night I went in it was 70.2 and they were out of regular...got to top it up with Super at the regular price...I don't usually take a whole tank of super though...even when it's at the regular price...too rich for maZuki...but it sure lasts longer when I top it up with super...

 

[Mark_88]

It's been $0.665 for the last three days...might have to fill up again before the price starts going up...oil went to $40+ a barrel yesterday so the price is going to creep back up...

Why do you say that, Mark? Do Rangers have a knock sensor on the engine or is your engine getting old? (still learning Rangers here )


Same here in TO with the 66 cents per Liter.

Nah, I just read somewhere that running super all the time is not needed or not good for the engine...can't remember either way...but if I put a half a tank or so every once in a while it seems to perk up a bit performance wise...

I thought the knock sensor would kick in if you were running too lean...meaning a lower octane or just lean fuel mix...don't know for sure but I might look it up...

EDIT: Just looked it up...I was partly right...lean fuel or low octane...but it is also caused in OBD-II systems when there is an issue with advanced timing...instead of me trying to explain it you can read more here...

Knock Sensors

Same here in TO with the 66 cents per Liter.

Cool! I'd figure prices in TO would be less than Barrie...but that depends on where you go...cheapest has always been Newmarket...I think they know they are half-way so they try to compete by staying below everyone else...

 

[Chris.S.]

Surprisingy enough it dropped overnight here down to 75.9 now...

 

[Crunchy]

WOOT WOOT

Just gassed er up at 60.9/L In Ottawa

I think they keep the prices lower here so that the poiticians don't know how expensive it really is.

Wow...that is the lowest probably in all of Canada...prices went up slightly this week...now at 70.something...but oil just went down again so the price may dip also...
