I would ditch the exxon card and stick with cheveron gas because cheveron uses techron which is considered one of the best products to clean engine deposits. They use a small amount, but it will aid in less deposits in the engine.

gas is gas there all the same, go with the one that has more stations in your area or whichever one is more convenient for you.
