No. Not the other way round. Optimax or V-Power is refined to 97. The other super unleadeds are 95 with octane booster added. I'm not saying there are no additives in it. There are, just not to get the octane rating up. You really think Tesco 99 is refined to a higher octane than VPower? Shell even used dedicated tankers for VPower. Never mentioned supermarkets, but to answer your question no, supermarket 99 is not refined. I refer to traditional superunleaded 97 octane such as esso supreme, bp ultimate, which are refined. vpower is neither 97 Ron, nor a pure refined high octane fuel, see my first reply |

Have read a few articles from the US with people finding issues with 10% bio-ethanol in the fuel which has damaged fuel line components during storage, it seams if the car isn't used the fuel damages them more than a vehicle in constant use, so many are draining or filling with normal fuel before storing.

I put my g40 into storage for a year and there is now fuel leaking from the fuel pump everytime I start it up to give it a run. It was fine before it was parked up. I don't even want to think about what else will be screwed by the time I put it back on the road again! |
