Got the bill of lading at the Elmhurst Amoco and it is in fact Amoco Premier LSD, cetane 50.
On the bill, that is, and hopefully the tank contents match.
I asked the owner about ULSD and he didn't know. The LSD designation has been on the bill for a while he stated.

I stopped here a few days ago - the clerk had no idea what I was talking about. He sifted through some papers, and said this is #2 regular diesel, but its the best stuff? Go figure. He did say however that a Speedway in DG sells Premium diesel. I looked around and couldn't find it. On a side note, around Elgin on the way to DG there was a Citgo which had a large yellow sign that says Premium diesel. There is no price on it yet, but one can imagine they might carry it in the future. I asked the guy inside, and he said it wasn't premium and he had no idea why they had a sign out there.

The speedway station is just a few blocks east on Ogden
. The price is usually either the same or just a few cents lower than the BP.

BP station at Army Trail Road and Swift Road 1 block West of the Army Trail Road exit from I-355 sells BP Diesel.

Do all Chicago BP stations now sell Premium Diesel?

Add to the List: BP in Monee, IL (exit 335 on I-57) $2.57

I stopped there today and found the Amoco Premier sticker on the pump. I didn't ask the clerk to confirm, but the diesel looked nearly clear and I had no smoke on hard accelerations (which I had a lot of with the last tank I bought at the LaSalle/Ontario BP in the city--did they stop selling Premier?)

Ouch. $3.049 a gallon for Premium BP in Downers Grove this morning.

Oh well, at least I don't have to do that for awhile....
