Any Chevron that has it. Petro-Can pretty much stopped carrying it a while ago.
I used to frequent the Chevrons at Tillicum/Gorge, and Shelbourne/Hillside (corner of Hillside Mall) for 94.

As far as I know only Chevron carries 94. I just got mine tuned on 91 just for daily driveability and mini road trips and there; 94 is harder to find in some places... in the end the difference will be like ~10whp, torque will remain about the same

Any Chevrons between Campbell River and Nanaimo? (and/or in CR?) Going to pick up a 'Rine with a buddy and will likely need gas.

I'm pretty sure both Courtenay and Parksville both have Chevrons.
