What fuel to run in my 95
i have a my 95 impreza standard apart from exhaust and dump valve,i always run car on super unleaded were available,just wondered whats the best and whats the best substitute as cant always get vpower and have been using tescos momentum 99 ron,is it ok to use shell optimax and could i use unleaded with a octane booster,and is there any problems runing car on quater of a tank of petrol.:wonder:
|
UK = 95 RON
Import = 97 RON You'll be fine with 99RON but imo wasting your money unless it gets remapped to use those fuels. I've used (in my 93wrx) Optimax (now V power),Tescos 97 and 99,Total Excellium (97 iirc), some of the supermarket SULs BUT BP ultimate doesn't seem to go well with Imprezas. Never had any problems on ¼ tank but I drive quite carefully when on low fuel as my car does tend to enjoy a bit too much :lol1: |
v power is the best but you dont really want to run on any thing less then 97 and i wouldnt put 95 in even on a uk spec car
|
I used to run my 1995 WRX on Tesco 99 and never had a problem in over 6 years of ownership. It often works out cheaper than lower RON stuff as Tesco's prices are often very competative against rival petrol stations.

running 95 ron even on a standard uk car isn't ideal, im amazed someone would actualy recomend it |
V-power or Tescos, but i wouldnt run on normal unleaded.

they do a job but i only keep some for emergency use. Your much better of mapping it then running it on the mapped fuel :thumb: |
cheers mate dont even no if mine is chipped it does run 1.2 on boost gauge and it is a import if that helps
|
def had something done to up the boost then.
best bet get it on a rolling road and see whats going on, map could be ok or could be all over the place. |
cheers,i no under the bonnet theres no manaul boost controller so it must be altered via ecu.
|
Tidgy you Proxy troll edit your posts :D
Stick to Tesco 99 or Shell equivalent, never had any probs with it :) |
