I may have to try it i have their gas card but don't use it much. Haven't used it in months I use my Chevron and Texaco but they have gone to 10% ethanol now as well.

I'll have to check the shell stations around here and see if they sell it here in Ky.

Planning on riding some tomorrow and will need some gas. I'll try it if they do have it.

Re:Shell Nitrogen enriched gas???????? 3 Years, 2 Months ago  
I think it's only available in premium. Could be wrong.

Two questions:

1: Isn't our atmosphere like 78% nitrogen already? Why would putting a little more in the gas help?

2. Isn't in an inert gas? So what would it do? Or maybe how would it do it?

Not sure what to think about it. Shell is claiming that the added nitrogen allows their cleaning agents to be more effective at normal engine operating temps.

I have always liked shell gas. So hoping this one is a good idea.
