Hmmm. Having owned gas stations (sold them in 07) I can't imagine oil companies allowing their dealers to break any state or federal laws. My reps were always on us to make sure we were compliant. They would hold back money from credit card sales if you were not. In Cali, like you said, everything is ULSD and not always tagged as such. In AZ I actually have to look for ULSD because most of the stations only sell #2.
