yeah yeah another fuel thread.. but since using the tesco stuff my car is performing better and sounds fantastic.. pops and bangs quite a lot.. now heres my question..

Is this good or bad, the popping and banging from the exhaust ?

 

i thought it was 99ron???

 

I assume you have a decatted exhaust?

The pops and bangs are basically unburnt fuel in the exhaust igniting,
nothing to concern yourself over really.

No, I keep saying this, Tesco also do 97 RON now.

Rob

 

popping banging and flames are better

 

so unburnt fuel aint an issue then

 

Tesco only market 97RON in their only Sheffield petrol station; the *****! I asked the station manager about 99RON but they just looked at me blankly with no idea what I was talking about..........

 

Could mean your running slightly rich, but that's better than lean!

Most cars chuck some unburt fuel out, especially when booted.

I drove all the way to Banbury after having my oil change done at
API, because the Tesco Green Energy site said that they had it.

Got their and pulled up on the forecourt, no bloody 99RON

I sent a very arsey email to Tesco customer services to make them
aware and had it removed from the site.

As an appology the cheeky buggers sent me a baseball cap.......

With bloody "Tesco 99RON" written on it !!!!!

Rob

 

So is there no more 99Ron???

Esso Surprime is now 98ron

Their is still Tesco 99RON.

As for the Esso stuff, I'm not sure.

Rob

 

Esso stuff is rare in the east midlands and it is 97 ron . Tesco people didnt understand what 99 ron is .

 

Well, i just filled up with Esso SUL or whatever and its 98Ron. on the pump it says 97, but that old branding.
