    Oh baka naman ma-excite ka mag try ng iba ibang gasolina at ubusin mo agad nasa tank. Hinay hinay lang sa tapak at mahal ang presyo hehe!

    If the car can use unleaded, no problems at all.

    Got better mileage sa xcs, dati sa petron extra unleaded ok na sana, but until haluan nila ng e10, i switch back to xcs.

    The difference in consumption shouldn't be that great, not unless you were using V-Power in city traffic and XCS on the highway.

    Ang pagbalik ng comeback...

    actually parehong city driving lang po yun..di na naulit yung 4.8L/100 kms..usually 6.8-7.5 na lang average nya ngayon..pag v power gamit ko 10-12 pa rin average..i dunno why pero yun po yung naobserve ko..

    Shell Super Unleaded.
    - It's the cheapest fuel among Shell's lineup

    Why Shell?
    - I got a Shell Citibank Gold and I like the rebates it gives me

    Personally between the different fuel lineup (ex. Shell Premium, Petron XCS, Caltex Gold, etc.), my philosophy is get the cheapest fuel you can find. I attribute more of the perceived performance gains or decrease of fuel consumption from switching from gas A to gas B as a placebo effect as there are so many variables in play that may affect fuel economy (ex. -1 PSI on the tires). So unless somebody dyno'ed their car to run at 60km/h while simply switching the gas, doon lang ako mapapabilib Which reminds me.. hasn't ANYBODY done this yet? :D

    In a way, I'm thinking whether Citibank's Shell 5% rebate is better compared to BPI-Petron + BDO Rewards/SM Advantage points. Any ideas?

    Basta ako for me I have no problem with my cars being choosy sa fuels, ako ang choosy, ayoko talaga ng gas station na kailangan patayin ang engine while filling up because it means i have to switch off my A/C. Ang init men, sa 5 mins lang na patay ang A/C medyo mamumuo na sa noo ko yung pawis( you can actually feel it) lalo na kung naka slong leeve ka tapos tanghaling tapat minsan iiwan ka pa ng gas boy kasi habang pinupuno yung auto mo aattend pa sa iba. Shell ang ganyan kaya I dont go to shell stations.

    BTW diba urban legend lang yung pwede sumiklab yung fuel pag naka start yung sasakyan at nagkakarga ng gas..alam ko may thread na dito yun eh.

    Good evening mga sir,

    For the past 7 years I've been using Shell Unleaded for my Gas Revo 1.8 efi, not that I prefer this brand and variant or anything, but:
    - A Shell station happens to be accessible to my daily driving route
    - Was advised to stick to a fuel variant and brand as much as possible, pero rare case xtra unleaded kpg desperado na mgkarga

    My friend na 2003 Gas Revo user uses Petron XCS, and told me he gets better mileage. Again, I guess not by the brand, but maybe because of the higher octane rating. Curious lng po ako since 93 and 95 are both acceptable to the engine by specs, but by book it says high octane are for high compression engines, is the revo engine classified as one? Will the better mileage worth the extra penny? Is it true that 95 is better for efi engines?

    Sorry dami tanong, I'm a newbie in car fuel knowledge, thanks sa advice mga sir!

    better siguro sir try it for yourself. Petron XCS user din ako for my '97 Civic VTi A/T. FC ko is 8-10km/L city driving. I tried Petron unleaded before, kaso lumakas FC ko kaya balik ako XCS.

    if i have the budget definitely v-power ako. i remember nung bago yung auto i tried v-power and blaze. mas ramdam ko ang hatak ng v-power kesa blaze. since mahal na ngayon ang gas xcs na lang. hehe

Petron XCS, Shell V-Power or Caltex Gold?
