Especially with the amount of water that is being introduced. Just can't help but notice how the oil went from being black using petrol then switch over to eflex for a good year or more and now it's no longer black at all. Been using the same oil for years Edited 03/12/13 02:41 AM by Kroozin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You get really clean oil running gas too. It is because you get a more complete combustion. So very little by-products. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trying to decide which route to go before I get my car tuned .Only thing that worries me is eflex rating is never consistent . Nearest eflex is at casula and a mate has once tested it at e68, is it a problem? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nearest eflex is at casula and a mate has once tested it at e68, is it a problem?I have heard this for a while now and really don't know why people keep bagging eflex. I have been using eflex daily for over 2 years, no issues and it gets raced often.I have been testing both fuels electronically for a while now an they are both as consistent as each other, eflex is 71% and United is 85%.With the xcal now able to hold 10 tunes it's probably best you get tuned for both.

Should be back to normal again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
