i almost exclusively use mobil 8000, and after using optimax for the last two tanks, i can say that i am thoroughly unimpressed. getting to the end of the second tank, i had idle issues, and it would miss much more when cold... sure optimax feels 'smoother' but there's less power and the fuel seems to go 'off' very quickly.
one tank of mobil 8000 later, all is good again.
i just can't trust the quality of the optimax.
i did also notice that after hard fanging, the engine temsp soar much more with optimax than with the mobil. at first i put it down to day to day conditions etc, but it happened on hot and cold day, and doesn't happen with the mobil.. maybe it's not just me?
i haven't really tried Barely Petrols ultimate, it only recently came on at the nearest servo..
Cya, Stewart
