    Hi Guys,

    ask ko lng for my kind of Ride (Honda City Exi 97) is it ok kung mag Premium Gas ako or gold or XCS (hehe para walang branding)?? kc parang nabasa ko ata na may mga right kind of gas ata sa isang Age ng isang Car parang sa Engine Oil, pag Luma, di na preferrable ang Semi-synthetic or Synthetic (nalilito ako eh)

    Balak ko kc magpalit ng Unleaded na lng, mas mura ng konti at bka may harm na naggwa sa car ang premium Gas-es.

    paAdd na rin:
    panu ko manually magpapalit ng gas from premium to unleaded? is it a good practice ba na paabutin ko sa Empty ung Gas ko, then itakbo ng konti then mag paGas na mga 10L sa isang bagsak?

    Thanks in Advance!!

    AFIK ok to use unleaded sa City. Just gas up with unleaded. Kung pangit ang performance ng engine with unleaded balik mo lang sa normal gas mo.

    lahat naman ng gasolina natin unleaded na, octane rating lang nagkaiba. may 93 0ctane, 95 at 96 octane rating. some cars don't run well on lower octane gasoline, "tumotope" minsan. my vitara runs slower with weak engine response on 93 octane, while on 95 it runs smooth with better engine response. kaya balik ako sa 95 octane

    while yung 97 pizza lancer ko dati kahit 93 octane lang ikarga ko malakas pa din hatak.

    There was a time that I was using premium kasi I noticed na yung dating nakukuha ko sa 2nd gear sa unleaded, nakakayanan na ng 3rd gear with Premium. Ive since gone back to unleaded na lang kasi mostly sa traffic lang naman nagagamit siya.

    So parang pag nag pa93 octane (for example is Silver, of caltex) pakiramdaman ko muna kung anu difference dun sa dati kong 95oct na Gas, okok Noted... pag panget or maaus ako na bhla update ko na lng toh,

    BTW, How can I change my gas from 95 - 93?? As I said on what I posted, tama ba na i-paEmpty ko muna ung gas tpos magpapaGas ako ng medyo half tank? (this is from 95oct-93oct Gas, and Vice versa, for other readers if able)...

    Thanks

    Yeah, that should about do it.

    No harm, really, in running 93 octane. But if your engine runs funny on it, better to use higher octane gas.

    Ang pagbalik ng comeback...

    sa experience ko sa 2 sasakyan ko, shell unleaded ang pinaka matipid.

    sa akin din...i get get around 30 kilometers more (around 330 kms) on a full tank, compared to around 300 kilometers on caltex silver and around 285 on petron unleaded.

    to the TS: use the minimum allowed octane rating for your car. i think the city can get around at a minimum of 91 RON. no use to put high octane gasoline on a stock daily driven car.

    pag nag below 1/4 na yung gas mo.. pwede mo nang palitan yan.. so karga ka na nang 93 oct.. tapos paabutin mo ulit sa 1/4 then karga ulit nang 93 oct.

    dati Corolla XL gamit ko, carburator sya. dapat 95 octane up kasi ang hina ng hatak pag 93 octane ang gamit. ngayon sa GLi ok na ang shell unleaded, mas malakas pa hatak compared sa premium ng shell.

    i usually use unleaded with 93 octane. then if i have long drives i use 95 octane. sometimes i mix it 75% 93 octane + 25% 95 octane. so far oka naman kahit mixed.

    no problem kahit magkarga ka na agad ng unleaded hindi mo na kelangan hintayin pa na mag empty gas ka.. sa civic ko which is 97 model unleaded (93octane rating) ang gamit ko at ayos na ayos naman ang hatak.. sa corolla ko nga lang na carburetor type mas prefer nya yung higher octane rating na 95... hirap kasi humatak pag mababa yung octane na gamit ko.

    tama! and also, buti pa kayo diyan sa PI mataas ang octane rating ng gasolina! dito nag tatyaga lang kami sa 91 octane.. Premium pa yun ha! (either from Shell, Chevron, Texaco, 76, etc..) lolz!


    aite, peace.

    Shell also puts out more in terms of fuel efficiency as per my experience. Kaso nga lang ang premium nila is only 93 RON, kaya I only fill up with Shell V-power.

    Oo nga pala. Im using Shel e10. I never really took note if there is a mileage difference between the e10 formulation and the plain unleaded. Does anyone have a feedback regarding e10? yung Seaoil they even have premium e10 as well. That's the one I used before.

    Update:
    Have Change my Gas to 95 to 93 oct,
    Question is, what would be a good brand of gas for fuel consumption and di babagal ang hatak?, coz im using Caltex silver, di ko lng alam, pero nung naka Gold ako, eh paEmpty na, nagpaGas ako sa shell, medyo parang "PARANG", nag iba ung takbo ng Car, bumagal xa actually, Premium, sa shell, is this really true? what I have experienced? ang alam ko lng, good for long driving ang shell, how about petron?
