    use gasoline with the right octane rating as per your car's manual.

    fuel efficiency depends mostly on the car itself and not on the gasoline you use.

    driving habits may also affect fuel consumption of the car.

    change the car or your driving habits to increase fuel efficiency.

    It will really depend on your car's requirements and tuning.

    Most cars have minimal octane requirements. They'll be okay on "92" or "93" RON (equivalent to 87-89 AKI in the US).

    Many cars have adjustable fuel maps. Meaning, they'll run different on "92" from "95". Some of them will gain power (and hence, fuel efficiency) from "95" to "96", some will actually lose power.

    Older cars often run better on high octane, because it's better at cleaning out the engine, and often because deposits on the head give them higher compressions, which can lead to rough running or knocking on low octane gas. This is condition-dependent. Some old cars run absolutely fine on low octane.

    In other words... if you're driving a regular Japanese car... just use whatever gives you the best fuel efficiency for the least amount of money. Your requirements will vary, based on your specific car type, driving conditions, and engine/fuel system condition.

    Just don't buy "89" Regular at the provincial station... that's asking for trouble...

    Ang pagbalik ng comeback...

    depende po sa tono ng makina.

    I've been burning cheap gas sa lancer ko, ok naman. pero yung Xtra ng petron, mas ok ng konti yung takbo nya.

    we have a 91 mdl. toyota lite ace.
    ginagamit ko yung sea oil G5 extreme, high octane xa. katumbas yon ng v power ng shell at blaze ng petron pero ethanol.
    so far ok naman yung takbo at maganda tunog ng makina. minsan nga kala ko patay ang makina. malayo nararating ko compared sa ordinary premium gas.

    bka needs tuneup ang auto mo sir, and pa compression test mo na rin bka wala nsa sa specs and due for overhauling na.
    sa local gas natin if you like speed use blaze kung tipid hanap m e petron extra.
