92 octane, is it enough??
clarence:
ALL Esso stations sell 92RON petrol (blue pump handle).
Midnight:
Use higher RON or lower RON. This topic has been discussed many times and in lots of forums as well. I think there is no hard rule on this as it differs from car to car. Previously i am driving getz 1.3A. This car damm bo lat. When i switched from RON92 to RON95, the improvement on acceleration is obvious. I was on Esso Mobil then.
Then when i switch to Caltex Silver (RON95), there is a slight further improvement on my acceleration also. Smoother. Maybe is Techron. ;D Since then I have been on Caltex until now.
So, IMO, 92 octane is enuff, coz the spec says so. You can try higher octane fuel, it may improve your driving experience :smile:

But if you want peace of mind, you can use 95RON which costs just a little more than 92RON at an extra 3 cents per litre.
But pumping 98RON is an absolute waste of money - throwing it down the drain. 98RON costs an extra 8 cents per litre compared to 92RON.

hi clarence,
once again, i would like to thank you for sharing your inputs, sometimes when i read it, it seems as its an advice. But why is it U say I am wasting my money-throwing it down the drain? Are you saying Ron 95 and Ron 98 does not have any difference?
I pump Esso Ron 98, so very interested to know how come after pumping all the brands of petrol and different Ron, i read your advice about ron 98 being a waste of my money.
Thank you.

Hi, i think MOST Esso stations do have RON92 but not ALL. Coz i know at least 2 stations that dun have RON92. In addition to this, at the stations that do sell RON92, only a few pumps will have RON92 so u gotta look carefully or ask the pump attendants.
Shell is worse - most don't have RON92 coz they selling V Power...
