neither - BP ultimate.

If i had to choose though, it'd be Synergy8000 over Optimax.

The only petrol which doesnt make my car's check engine light come on in 4th gear under high load is BP Ultimate, granted the PowerFC was tuned with Ultimate, when Optimax is in the check engine starts to flash in high 3rd, low 4th. Synergy has slightly more tolerance over Optimax...

Running the car recently with a gas analyser attached produced a surprising result. Optimax has changed chemical composition replacing vital Carbo's with crap, I think the best one to use at the moment is Moble's new 98'. It was allot better than the optimax and had no nasty "solvents"...

Have you tried BP ultimate?

OMG vortex was SHITHOUSE..!!!!!!!

i HAD to use it on the way to dragcombat last year... (coz my petrol warning light was on for about 10mins and i didn't know if there were any petrol stations near by except that caltex i went to...)

"Check engine" light came on even with slightest right foot stepping... :( try not putting vortex in ur lovely lines...

    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
    • Yeah, I would have said the same. It makes me suggest that there are other things wrong, such that the ECU is totally unhappy with the broken sensor. The only other thought here is that maybe it is shorted, which might cause a different issue to the typical "disconnected" sensor.
