Tue, 21 May 2002 17:00 Yeah I reckon I noticed a difference when I tried BP about a month ago, after using only ever optimax since it came out. And actually, now I think about it, I think I got more Ks with BP. I'll have to investigate that more. While we're on the subject, my old man has a V6 vectra that's suposed to use premium, but lately he's been using normal ULP. I pinned him about it just before he drove to melbourne a couple of weeks ago, telling him the best time to fill it with premium was for highway driving, so he went straight out & filled up with regular. So anyway, he's been driving for a few hours, and he checks out the little trip computer you get these days, and it tells him the L/100Kms. And guess what? 12.9L/100Km! For a late model car on highway driving! So when the tank was finished, he filled up with BP premium, and reset the trip computer. After he had been back on the road a while? 8.0L/100Km. It even dropped down to high 7s for a bit. It helps you understand how much of a difference fuels can make. [Report message to a moderator]
