yes my inside tank rust alreadi..but a bit only....Originally posted by VspecR34:Hey, I'm using Mobil 8000, green colour one, 98 lahz, I find quite good leh... .
But I feel that 5000 (95) quite rough compared to 8000 (9, rpm drop only a little when change gear
Morever full tank also cost about the same.
For info, Esso = Mobil = ExxonMobil
I sometimes pump Shell XO loh, when I pamper my bike!~~~
Actually I feel that petrol is about the same loh, think only slight difference in their properties.
Singapore Petrol can trust lahz,
M'sia one......, I dare not comMent.
Caltex Wu Ya Hor bo?
Really that goOd ar?
Anyway, I'll always trust Mobil 1.
(Cos my hme here got the station liao, kekeke)
-="Does the inside of Ur fuel tank rust?"=-
i can tel u xo has definately got more power n pick up than exxonmobil's petrol so hurry, go try it!!! :pOriginally posted by ZecHs:yes my inside tank rust alreadi..but a bit only....
at least ur house only got mobil leh...mine got esso mobil and shell..so sometimes also dunno wat petrol to give them sia hehe
anyways i think i later go try XO..coz never try b4 ma hehe
the petrol u toking about is VpowerOriginally posted by SUPERFOUR:I sometimes got go m'sia walk walk wif my gf and i pump the shell petrol there...wah more powerful than s'pore xo leh...the color of the petrol is blue...but pick up damn good compared to s'pore one...
any diff are u sure thats its not a psycological effect ?Originally posted by SUPERFOUR:I'm oso riding an aprilia but i feel that xo is smoother n has more power than 98.but xo doesn't perfom when i have my rs pipe..y huh? instead esso 8000 works better..funny..my motorshop mechanic told me that caltex has the best petrol followed by shell..Caltex's petrol has the most power..tried it be4...ok lah got fight wif xo..
confirm not psychology effect...use rs pipe cannot pump good petrol...for my extrema la..for those aprilians out there i dunno lar.. but when i change back to milo use normal petrol no power..must pump good petrol..n i believe u n ah_tee ride a replica am i rite??Originally posted by Aprilia Rider:any diff are u sure thats its not a psycological effect ?
technically spking, my mech told me that my rs is '96 bike, so pump XO no use. no diff
another reason is that XO is for higher compression engines, mostly the big bikes.
i personally havnt pumped XO b4 lah
gotta ask at T to tell u more
budden i got fren who was using XO who changed to 98 told me that the engine became smoother.
Personally
SPC sucks. i pumped 98 octane fuel immediately felt the diff. engine very rough.
on the other hand, i felt that mobil 8k engine more smooth.
budden i still pump Shell 98 bwhahaha
i guess different bike got different reactions to different and then it performs differently too.
LASTLY
at last got another rs rider here liao
me and ah T not that lonely. LoL
info: fine increased to $700 liao hor when puting the rs pipe.
i got oso dare not put ah.
query: eh forgot wad i wanna ask liao.
when i rem then i post again
