I have tried esso 95, 98 and shell 98.. NO DIFFERENCES between esso 95 and 98.. In fact I getting slightly better milage with 95.. 15.3 km/l vs 14.9 km/l I guess this mean my car engine is fully run in.. Shell fuelsave 98 does not really save fuel.. Have not tried caltex yet since i getting better discount with my tiger card.. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
