[ixeo]

[jinkl-]

u really want then u go pump it out

 

[boyzone]

no problem one ... my old 4G91 also pump with leaded fuel ...maa :D

 

[adrianlek]

sorry guys, the topic shld hv been 'Terpump Lower Octane Fuel'.
my mistake :D
she pumped REGULAR instead of SYNERGY F1

 

[adrianlek]

sifus i just found out that she also pumped REGULAR last week.
so now sudah 2 times!!
no wonder la last week my car at times got 'tak tak tak' sound.

i think its fine. just don't keep doing it then its ok. the least u could do now is to ask her frankly, how many other times have she pumped regular for the past 6 months. in fact i've seen some older cars pump the regular and i think should be no problem. but of coz if you're worried, u can purge the petrol out via the purge screw at the bottom of the car.

its like you're so used to drinking filtered water. once in a while if u accidently drink tap water, it won't hurt u that much. but if you're paranoid, you can vomit it out.

Using leaded fuel on unleaded fuel engine may cause harm actually.. But only for the long run lah.. Knocking or pinging might happen because of the different octane level.. I think so, i forgot what i learn alerady! :p

 

[sarcastics]

REGULAR-ron92 & SYNERGY F1-ron97 are both unleaded fuel. if your car is a 95 wira or a 85 saga, using ron92 fuel shouldn't matter coz those are really really old tech medium compression engines. :D

What do you mean by "terpump UNleaded fuel?" I guess you mean LEADED?

LEADED FUEL HAS LONG BEEN BANNED IN MALAYSIA CONSUMER MARKET!!!

RON92 IS UNLEADED with lower Octane rating. No good for high-compression engines. It will create knocking and if your ECU is clever enough to detect the knock, it will retard the ignition timing to suppress the knock. Top up with RON98 such as V-power during half-tank and it should be alrite!

i think unless u're running some kind of engine tat requires strict control of fuel octane, there should be no problem. this is what you should do: go get a can of petrol that you want, drive the car until all the petrol finish, then dump in that can of petrol. problem solved :)

why take the hazzle of buying a can of petrol? refilling at the pump sounds much easier don't you think so?

no need to finish up the last drop gua?? If the petrol does harm, it's better to top-up from time to time to dilute it and increase the Octane number. If it does no harm, it just treat it as a normal tank of fuel lor. :D
