All fuel in SGP comes from the same oil refinery. The only diff is the additives. No such thing as Shell cleaner or SPC dirtier. Its all about their additives.

 

[liquidh]

I think so too. It’s just the additive. More and better additive makes for a smoother engine.

can drive car? but cannot afford petrol?
should swap to hybrid or purely electric car

Normally I pump Shell 95 and then occasionally I pump V-Power to "clean" my engine.

I feel that V-Power really got difference, engine feels smoother and more responsive. After the tank of V-Power is used up, the next tank of 95 feels also better than other older tanks of 95. So I think 95, 98 and V-Power really got difference.

if drive manual can feel more difference between low and high octane
more pronounced when rev high

The point here is stretching that every dollar for extra mileage.... not matter of affordability

to reach your standard of "stretching that every dollar for extra mileage", issnt hybrid or electric car can fulfill this requirement?

& technically is this possible on local roads? as a daily road user?

Just knock lor, spoil then change. Knock only when high rev when more than 5000 rpm. Normal driving OK.

Quite true. I full cash my car one. Don't need dual incomes or what CO approval coz people sitting beside and behind don't pay a single cent. My car yearly depre, my return of investment dividend can cover..
Too poor to let bank and AD earn interests and profit...

If I go jb, will pump petron 100 and high rev to clean my engine too...

Not sure if Petron uses ethanol to bump up the RON. Too much ethanol is bad for car components.

Bull la, see Malaysia cars and they last way longer than our cars. It's just us over pampering a piece of metal.
