    Gago ang mga taga petron dati ang octane ng E10 ay 95 now ginawang 93 na lang. wala naman silang maibigay na paliwanag kung bakit binabaan sabi lang ng gas boy na hindi nya raw alam basta ang available lang ay ang E10 na 93 ang octane.
    gago sila mag-lalabas ng product tapos di naman pangangatawanan... ilang buwan lang sila nag offer ng E10 95? wala pa yatang 2 months. Tinatakaw lang tayo.

    Hehehe take it easy there. They are not obligated to give anyone a 95 octane E10. Well soon enough their XCS will become E10 so there goes your 95 octane E10. Their Xtra Unleaded which used to be the regular 93 octane is now E10 thus their E10 is just 93 octane.

    The Biofuels Act requires oil companies to use biofuels in all "liquid fuels for motors and engines sold in the Philippines." All gasoline sold in the country must contain at least 5 percent ethanol by February 2009. By 2011, the mandated blend can go up to 10 percent—a potential market of 594 MMly (157 MMgy) of fuel ethanol. This figure is expected to increase by approximately 30 MMly liters per year (7.9 MMgy), according to the Philippines Department of Energy. The increased ethanol production is supported by the increase in registered vehicles, which is growing at an average rate of 5.83 percent per year, according to the Department of Transport and Communication.

    pakibasa uli.. pre, di ko sinisisi ang gas boy nor station manager...kundi ang petron...

    sa yo tidus.... wala akong sinasabi na obligasyon nila ang magbgay ng mataas na octane.... sila ang nagbigay ng ganoong kataas na octane noong unang labas nila ng E10 compare sa caltex at shell na 93 lang..... kung ikaw saan ka pupunta?di ba sa mataas na octane at the same price? Now... ng dumami na ang customer saka sila magbababa ng octane. bago sila maglabas ng bagong product dapat mag isip sila di yong pa bago bago... kung tatanga tanga ang mga dating customer eh kukuha pa rin sila ng E10...dahil akala nila 95 Ron pa rin.... Di naman sinasabi ng gas boy na binabaan na nila ng octane... di ba parang nanloloko sila ng customer... although may nakalagay nga na 93 RON... pero di sapat yon...lalo na kung 1 buwan ka ng pabalik balik sa gas station na yon.... IKAW? KUNG SA SHELL KA LAGING NAGPAPAKARGA... ANG SUPER UNLEADED, SUPER PREMIUM AT V-POWER KAILAN BA SILA NAGBABA NG OCTANE SA BAWAT PRODUCT NILA DAPAT BA KADA KARGA MO ASK MO KUNG ILAN ANG OCTANE?...AT KUNG 10 YRS KA NG NAGPAPAKARGA SA SHELL MAGTATANONG KA PA BA NG OCTANE LEVEL? DI BA HINDI? UNLESS KUNG MAY BAGONG PRODUCT.... DAPAT INFORM NILA ANG MGA CUSTOMER NILA...AT KUNG PAPAANO NILA GINASTUSAN ANG ADVERTISEMENT NG E10 95 RON DAPAT GASTUSIN DIN NILA ANG PAGBABAGO NG PRODUCT NILA. PANLOLOKO ANG GINAGAWA NILA SA CUSTOMER NILA... Kya never na akong bibili ng gas sa petron na yan.... Shell na lang ako v-power.... power... aim power

    Go for higher octane if youre driving what is considered a 'performance' car, else just stick with the regular 93 level. Or better yet follow the car manufacturer's recommended octane level.

    To be fair to rensom, I also felt like Petron kind of duped the customer here, especially since they were touting "E-10 premium with 95 octane" in their adverts. It's true that business is business, but they also have a responsibility to be somewhat fair to the consumer. And that fairness could have been manifested by way of advanced notices informing the public of the deletion of the E-10 premium product line. That's why good businesses that do business right and are concerned with the buying public are termed "socially responsible," and are admired all over the world. These things won't probably include Petron on that list.

    Pareng rensom, lipat ka na lang sa SeaOil Extreme 97 (E10 ito). I tried filling up with it and so far it's pretty good. And at P35.75 a liter, you can't beat the price!

    heh heh. why, is it illegal? as my favorite female lawyer says, "sue me!" caveat emptor, ika nga.
    you ask a gasboy a question that even the petroleum engineer dare not answer, a question better answered by the company bean counters?
    lastly, just cross over to the other gas station if you don't like the product. no big deal... use your wallet to show them your displeasure!
    errr. ano bang kotse mo, 12RT100? american V8 409? 5R?? air-cooled flat 4??? i drive a japanese diesel ii 2.5 (indirect injection)... heh heh.
