wat kind of petrol do u use?

[biking nomad]

wat i know is hor tat even if u pump above a octane level higher than a bike it doesnt do anything for yer bike.

 

yer engine needs the recommended octane fuel if not will be inefficent consumption, performance n knocking of engine.

 

N i think most bike engines these days need 95 octane fuel. But I think Beemers die die need 98 oct....

 

This is wat I read n was told by more experinced bikers lah.

 

Personally, i ride RXZ...i harldy pump in Sg but if in an emergency I'll pump 95 oct.

N in JB i usually just pump da Synergy F1, which if i'm not wrong is 97 Octane.

HI there...,

 

I don't Know about you guys Singapore or Malaysia when you pump in the petrol into your tank you should be able to smell the vapour (don't get steam huh) it should smell like a (diesel cum kerosene) akind of mixture...not smell like a drain...in Singapore there are few of the station they do smell like that as sludge(contamination) water mix with petrol for a long time...thats is the reason why, they pump station need to upgrade flush the main tank underground...! after some years...

 

Always pump in a new,bright and big station...play safe...

 

I pump 95 good enough...why..? Even the Ferrari is tested in that octane level (average petrol)

 

Why..? not every part of the world you can get 98 or other fancy named petrol...which actually is 98 with additives...and expensive..

 

Why not 92 bai tahan no power 90+ like bike want to go don't want to go.. power coming and not coming...ones accidentily pump...never forget that incident...

 

hope you guys gain something from my experiences....till then...

Hmmm.... i heard that if u ar riding a old bike or a vintage bike, u must use 95 or 92 petrol....high end petrol will worsen ur bike performance....

i believe a bit....but how true is it?

Recently I found out that ESSO petrol is not as smooth as CALTEX (98). Very hard to accept but this is really what i think.

 

its a Caltex not many around in SGP..
