Which Petrol To Use?

[Charles89]

I always use premium, but I'm starting to use Caltex Vortex. Its 98 Octane, and cheaper than BP Premium. BP Ultimate is too expensive for someone who earns just over $200 a week. Damn apprentiship!!

and for some caltex, u can use safeway dockets to save 4c a litre :laughing-smiley-014: :laughing-smiley-014:

may be its a rental...

Probley LOL!

All this fuel might all come from the same plant / refinary but I was told different companies, ie BP / Mobil, they put their own additives in...

Pretty much just any RON 98 I use the vortex 98, coz its the "cheapest" (>_>) RON 98 near my area...

I being hearing people getting away with RON 95s ok, although, I won't trust my car with it...

Only ever BP fuel.

Im using BP 95 ATM....was using 98 RON but didnt find a great deal of inprovement with it. Either way the BP fuels (95 and 98) have been flawless in my R33 N/A.

Ethanol = lots of probs (cheap and nasty) stalls car, runs rough, pings

from what I have read/seen/heard, with 98 ron fuel you will get a more pure fuel and more efficient burn, thus getting more power and better fuel economy (though this may only be minimal depending on your car) also you will increase the life of your engine, compared to 95 Ron.

I ALWAYS use BP Ultimate unless an absolute emergency.

with everyday/non-sports cars it doesn't really matter as much. Sports cars are made to take advantage of better fuel.

I use Shell vpower and never let the tank get below half. I've heard so many reports about bad/contaminated fuel I dont trust any company but I have to fill my car up somewhere lol.
