changing gas

**xircom** · May 16th, 2008 03:22 PM

i've been using caltex silver for my car for its first 2500kms. kaya lang our company will issue a fleet card for my use starting june. it could either be shell or petron. just a few questions:

-maninibago kaya ang engine ko since sanay lang sya sa caltex silver?
-kelangan ko ba ubusin ang caltex sa fuel tank bago i-fill up with the new gas? or pwede ko paghaluin?
-ano ba katumbas ng silver sa shell (unleaded or premium)? and petron (unleaded or xcs)?

91 ron lang ang minimum sa manual namen e (2008 honda city 1.3 cvt). thanks in advance.

For the first two questions the answer is NO. Basta wag lang diesel ilagay mo ok ka na. Dati nga combination of Blaze and Xtra Unleaded wala naman nangyari sa kotse ko...

For the 3rd, the Silver version sa Shell tawag nila dun Super Unleaded at sa Petron Xtra Unleaded.

Or regular gas na 89 ang RON hehehe (have tried this once - never again - nagtope ang aking sasakyan). . .

Wala naman ata ganyan kababa na Octane sa atin (at least the Big 3, kung sa mga smaller players ka tanong ka muna) na binebenta so we should be safe.

Sir Tidus,

meron pa dito sa Iloilo, Petron katabi ng isang mall, regular 89 RON selling at 5 pesos lower than unleaded. I asked also bakit binebenta pa nila, twas for old school gasoline engine vehicles daw.

IMHO, di magbabago sir.

example: kung dati kang "GOLD" 95 RON Caltex tapos nagpakarga ka ng "XCS" 95 RON Petron parehas lang po yan.

kung dati kang "silver" Caltex, tapos XCS Petron pinalagay mo siguro may konting pagkakaiba kasi mas mataas na kasi ng RON na nailagay mo e.

just my 2cents.

WAG LANG po Diesel sir..

Guys,
I have some clarification.
All in all how many types of fuel do we have?
Ano lang pwede gamitin ng CRV?
I use Shell's V-Power eversince
Due to everyweek increase on fuel
Ano kaya na mas mababa ang pwede kong gamitin?
I notice nung pinaghalo ko Super Premium and V-Power
Parang maingay ng kaunti ung Engine ko.. Compare to V-Power only..
Pls. Enlighten.
Thanks

Ano ba RON kailangan ng engine mo? Nakalagay yan sa manual. Normally alam ko dapat mga 91 RON kaya na yan eh or at least 93 RON which regular unleaded should do... Ako I never really used those higher octane gas unless it is required, its just throwing money away...
