BAturb Member 521 Member For: 20y 7m 7d Gender: Male Location: Adelaide Posted 13/08/05 08:03 AM Share Posted 13/08/05 08:03 AM I refer to an article in the SA cars guide on the new Bio Premium unleaded (98ron) "Our Bio premium 98 is a better product, on a dyno test our 98 ron petrol exceeds BP ultimate and Mobil synergy 8000 on torque and horsepower".It contains 10% bioethenol- made from wheat waste, and retails for 1.12/L.Any thoughts on using this fuel and could it potentially cause any problems?

I was at a United and saw 98ron only 2cents over the std unleaded. I thought I was on a winner there.Thinking about it, now not so sure although the car feels just as strong.They also had a 94 ron that was 5 cents under normal unleaded.Anybody know more about what this fuel is like.

Posted 14/08/05 07:18 AM Share Posted 14/08/05 07:18 AM Sounds good, I'd be cautious of the hydroscopic properties of ethanol though...might cause corrosion in the fuel system.Ehtanol is best mixed with a bit of ice and drunk chilled.

There is no Optimax available in S.A because it's Benzene content is higher than the States prescribed limits. Perhaps this is their answer?
