I have noticed that when running 99RON teh amount of throttle required to drive at "normal" speeds is less

not entirely how true this is , but can imagine they might be some of the busiest stations about , daytime all the mummy's use them to top up there suv's with the shopping
but i never fill up at them , not sure why
maybe because of this recent tesco fiasco ?

I know Tesco is a big company but they don't refine there own oil.

The only difference is the additive and it is in small quantaties 1Ltr for every 1000Lts of fuel. I don't use the fuel, for my TDI but would for my Golf if it was not for the Shell being the same price around here.

I would avoid supermarket fuel
Why's than then Rich?
I've heard bad things about it in general - although I'm only going by what I've heard or read.
There was a thread on here too a while back about the quality of supermarket fuel - clicky
I generally stick with branded stuff to be on the safe side, but it may make no difference at all!

Ive been recommended to 'treat' my car to a tank of Ultimate or Optimax every now and then, but not all the time. I have however noticed that the car runs and starts really well when i have Ulitimate in it.

but put BP ultimate super unleaded stuff in mine a few months ago, and it ran absolutely horrible until it was all filtered out, ie stalling, jerking about.
Was that just a bad batch, or is it because the car is too old for this type of fuel. I only ask because isnt shell optimax the same thing?
