RON95 : Feedbacks

[BLaCkHoWLiNG]

2 days ago, i drove my wife's car to pump petrol. Now, i saw RON95 and RON97 at the kiosk. Out of curiosity i pumped RON95 and tried it out. I mean, come on.. it's a stock car (Kia RIO), what difference will it make...

So i assumed "laaa".....

On the way back.. the car felt sluggish.. i thought it's all psychology.

Then I parked the car and went to sleep while my wife took the car out to get some groceries.

1 hour later...

She returned .. we had some small chat... and she said this:

"Oh dear, remember to service the car... i think something's wrong with it.. no power laaa.. i think maybe something's not right"

---

There.. that's my feedback... WTF man!

my personal experience, pumped into my persona at shell....i tot its 97 coz i didnt notice the pump coz the handle still green color.....except small stickers stating ron95. rm50.00 ok la..gets a bit more fuel than usual....

but its really sluggish coz when i accelerate, i need to floor my throttle then only my auto tranny starts to downshift....coz usually it works very smooth.....at highway....really can feel it....and maybe i am wrong, but noticed the fuel gauge indicator drop faster than normal......

so now dunno whether shall i keep pumping the rm2.00 ron97.......sigh:|

I also pumped Ron95 to my Camry '00 2.2 yesterday and I think the power is not as meaty as before. Not to say the power is not there, but you gotta step on it that bit more to get it going. I think RON97 and RON 95 will work out to cost the same cause u step on it more to get it going in RON95.

Atleast there is no knocking issue. Imagine my car having drunk RON97 for the past 9 years and then suddenly is asked to drink RON95. This is like drinking red label johnny walker then suddenly ask to drink black label.....I think I will probably drink something else than black label....yucks....

my fren pumped 95 into his myvi....and when i sat in his car, felt no diff but maybe he din tekan...

this thread is GOOOOD

generally and theoretically... Ron 95 has lower octane.. how could it be the same as Ron 97...

duh~


anyways... our local papers are used to misleading the public..
even the way they compare our fuel prices with the rest of the world.. (eg. RM 2 divided by 3.6 = USD 0.55 /litre) waa...cheapest fuel in the world.. BUT.. it ain't...

u better use ron97 la...da rm2.00 i think u no probelm for you......btw,i will stick with ron97 for my car because engines with thick carbon deposit will ping more because those carbon will induce hotter operating temp...

 

[hornydrifter]
