fuel

G'day MJamson,
Super markets have high turnover in fuel and how much low quality fuel is there availible for them to buy, not much if you ask me.
My car supposed to run on 95ron fuel but for over a year i have been driving it on 91ron fuel without any problem or loss of power as the engine compensate for it and i still do about 19.5 kml that is 55.1mpg GB or 45.8mpg US. i dont think i can complain about that. i often get super market fuel and cant fault it.
Sometimes the super markets have 40cent per liter discount, up to 100 litres, if you buy 200 dollars worth of groceries, so that makes it worth wile to do, then i go with a few jerry cans and get offcouse 100 litres all together, and save myselve 40 dollars.(is an old Dutch trick).....lol
Greetings,
Eddie.

G'day MobilOne,
My car is a Smart Forfour, i had since dec,2014 and have done about 20000km since i bought it, its nicknamed a Mitsubishi in drag, as it has Mitsubishi running gear.
There is nothing changed on the car, i just drive it as economical as i can with only coasting to intersections and stopping lights when safe, i never turn the engine off when in motion.
Greetings,
Eddie.
