[Discussion] Best Petrol Brand For Your S4?

[s4vs]

hey all, the thing bout v-power able to clean engine is it a myth or truth??

 

hi, V power has FMT as the addictive. it make the fuel burn more entirely. as for wat i try, V power in high speed and long distance then u can feel the diff. if in SG i totally dun feel the 'Power'. if i want to clean mine engine. i take 1 full tank of caltex premium then back to shell 98 for 8 to 9 tank. cycle continue.. and i know tat for carb bike you dun enjoy the V power much. new S4 with PGM-FI will enjoy the diff. wat i know is carb always tend to input slidely more or less petrol to engine when throttle(too much or less petrol when throttle, the engine won't perform). FI bike will confirm have a better burning ratio, so FC will be better then u will enjoy V POWER.

A more complete combustion = leave lesser residue behind. But not necessary clean the engine rite? To clean the engine, you need more than just having a complete combustion. You need 'cleaning agent' to be inside the petrol probably like what Caltex techron claims....

So, can i say it is a myth that v-power cleans the engine???

i dun understand. So are u trying to say caltex techron and shell v-power are the same?

additive diffrent, one is techron, one is FMT. eample of wat i think huh. no proven. techron additive ideal for clean up engine(detergent)100%. FMT detergent maybe 60% or more/less(i not sure) the rest is booth power. in other words, both have the ability to clean engine just that the percentage of the detergent input is diff.IMO:cheeky: wat i test on my S4, caltax do smooth in throttle(smooth mean carb clean, Rough mean dirt build up liao), but give less mileage. shell respone good and higher mileage. so both have thier pro and con.. Above say is wat i think, no proven. hope no offend to you:)

There are bikes running on diesel, but not mine haha

Frome the votes seems shell vpower got t most popularity, but i feel it lacks power especially with pillions and milage also quite poor

[s4vtec]

for me, any petrol can do... since i started my touring trips, regardless of any petrol station u see, u also have to pump...

 

u guys might wana try Petronas for the combustion rate seems better than Shell V Power... my 2 cents...

You want to ahve that extra go!go!go!!!!...take a few bottle of Octane booster along la...any brand of petrol also become "Z" Power!
