    does it live up to its claims? kung effective, any drawbacks?

    imho, no one will know except if you do an overhaul and look into your pistons if they are clean.

    there are claims here and even in other car related threads (like mymitsu) that they have experienced better acceleration and better fuel efficiency from using this product, because probably of the cleaning factors. so i think it is best for you to find out if it suits you fine.

    my personal experience in using is product is that feels the same as my regular fuel (shell/petron).

    I felt the same thing with the acceleration, kahapon lang ako nagpakarga sa shell, i've always used Shell's unleaded gasoline. I feel na mas smooth yun hatak.

    IMO no difference... Kasi wife ko nagpapakarga usually, di ko alam kung Shell or Caltex, nakikita ko nalang sa resibo.

    heard that some local gas player is serving up RON 100 premium somewhere... at 75 bucks a pop.

    i had to replace fuel filter after 6 tankfuls, dumumi, nalinis siguro yung dumi sa gas tank or madumi yung fuel? must be the former. acceleration feels the same and consumption is definitely the same as shell unleaded.

    mas prefer ko pa rin ang petron... parang mas smooth at medyo tipid

    baka nga depende din sa condition ng makina, ung sa mga kaibgan ko na older cars ( 89 corolla gl and mistu lancer box type) pag caltex gold, or w/ techron tumotope, pero pag shell premium, v-power walang problem pero pag blaze lumalakas hatak kaso mabilis maubos

    Sa tagal ng pagpasada ko never akong nakaramdam ng difference sa mga gas na iyan.

    The only difference that I felt was some gas leaves a deeper hole in my pocket

caltex w/ techron, effective nga b?
