My wallet does not like Shell Optimax

In fairness, it solved carb icing issues on a number of bikes in my knowledge, and one that I owned (Ducati Monster 600)

what about tesco 99?

i have never noticed any difference between fuels, i just always use vpower to keep it clean inside the engine.

97 keeps it clean also.....i think when our cars were made they were made for 97, later 99 came out.....

I believe the Tesco 99 is a Biofuel, if I have to use it I also stick a bit of Redex in. I mainly use the Shell V-Power, which does make a difference, IMHO.

I always run on Shell Optimax or whatever the new name is, but occasionally use an 'inferior' fuel if i cant get to a shell station. Have I noticed a difference?..... Not really!

i dont notice a performance difference with the brand i just notice the car not idling as good as it does when using esso.....
