Help po! About Gasoline*
« on: April 08, 2012, 04:30:43 pm »
Hello po sa inyong lahat!
I currently own and drive a '12 Jazz 1.5 AT and i use Shell FuelSave Unleaded.
Ask ko lang po kung mas okay ba ang Petron XCS compared sa FS Unleaded in terms of Fuel Consumption? Kase kahit 1.5 lang ang makina ng Jazz malakas padin sa gasolina e. Pero malakas din naman sya humatak.
And wala bang Lead content ang Petron XCS? Eto kase nakalagay sa Driver's Manual.
Using petrol containing lead will damage your vehicle's emissions controls and engine. This contributes to air pollution.
Your vehicle is designed to operate on unleaded petrol with 91 Research Octane Number or higher.
PS I won't consider other brands because the agent told me to gas up ONLY at Shell or Petron.
Thanks sa mga magrereply!

Bosing Troytin; sa 2.0 litre petrol Mitsubishi Adventure ng pamilya namin, halos walang pinagkaiba ang fuel consumption ang paggamit ng Shell FuelSave Unleaded at Petron XCS. Maari ko bang malaman ang fuel economy ng iyong 1.5 Jazz/Fit? Tingin ko rin, nasa driving habits and instincts mo rin iyan. Kabisaduhin mo rin ang kotse mo, lalong-lalo na at 'matic iyan na may manual mode, para nang ma-adjust mo ang driving habits mo to achieve a more favourable fuel economy.

May link dito sa TopGear ukol sa mga ilang fuel-saving tips.   



And wala bang Lead content ang Petron XCS?

Sa pagkakaalam ko po ay unleaded na ang lahat ng fuel dito sa Pilipinas




PS I won't consider other brands because the agent told me to gas up ONLY at Shell or Petron.

Nakadepende rin naman po iyan sa mga branches ng Petron or Shell but in the family's experience, mas consistent ang Shell fuel quality.

Petron for fuels, shell for lubricants.
Don't believe the agent, kahit Total puwede yan.

Petron XCS has a higher octane level than Shell FS Unleaded. In my personal experience, the former is better specially on the high way since it has a higher octane level, but latter is cheaper. It makes acceleration easier because it burns faster, and it is cleaner. It somehow decreases the stress you put on your gas pedal for an extra speed.

Petron, Shell, and Caltex are selling lead-free gasoline/petrol.

You should follow the minimum octane of your vehicle, you will not want to hear its engine knocking! :P

Perhaps the reason why he told you to gas up only at Petron or Shell is because Shell and Honda are partners. While Petron's official car sponsor of the Media Edition of Xtra Mile Challenge is Honda Philippines.

Technically, there should be a difference.:D Maybe some factors caused you not to notice the difference. I should agree however if you are comparing Petron Xtra Unleaded and Shell FS Unleaded.

Do you know that sometimes gasoline-station owners are getting their products not from their appropriate dealer. So you may actually get a Shell fuel save unleaded from Petron. Yes, seriously. ;) Whichever is cheaper. This is illegal though.

Hope this helps! God bless us all.

Ahh i see, kaya pala Shell at Petron ang sinuggest nung agent na yun.
Ask ko lang sir, pano po pag may laman na FS Unleaded yung gas tank ng kotse ko, tapos nagpakarga ako ng Super Premium or XCS, masama ba yun? Ano mangyayari sa engine ko?

Sir, hindi naman yon masama, ang masama ay kung makargahan ka ng diesel. :) Once na mag load na yung XCS or Premium na may higher octance kesa dun sa FS unleaded, then mararamdaman mo na yung improvement. Matagal tagal pa yon kasi uubusin mo pa pati yung reserba sa tanke. (kung pinakahuli mong pinakarga yung Premium/XCS)

Kung gusto mo talagang ma feel yung difference, try mo Blaze or Velocity, kaya lang selected gasoline stations nalang ang meron nito.  :-\
