E10 Fuel

[DTKOAG]

Is anyone else of the same mindset that this fuel seems to be getting used a lot quicker than the previous grade ?
I seem to be filling up a lot more often than previous and with the high costs nowadays for fuel it's hitting the bank balance..

It's watered down shite. Put the premium stuff in. My car sees 10mpg more with it than the E10 stuff.

E10 is meant to be more eco but yep, it’s garbage for your engine.

There’s a common misconception that all fuel is the same and premium fuels are a marketing gimmick.

It’s just not true at all. Cheap supermarket fuel lacks the cleaning additives that come with premium fuels.

If you’ve got a half decent car, using good fuel, even if it’s every other tank really can make a difference to your engine.

Even more so with Diesel. Momentum/V Power diesel will keep your engine cleaner and help prevent things like DPFs clogging.

Definitely - and depending on the batch my needle seems to be in free fall on the dashboard!

I find that I'm putting way less fuel in my diesel car these days...


...since I started riding my bike to work ;-)

There is about a 33% drop in the energy ethanol produces compared to standard unleaded and it’s expected to see a decrease of about 3% in economy.

Handy for profits when prices are at a all time high

I tend to put in the premium liquid. I didn't last time and it seemed to vanish a lot quicker.

I started using the premium stuff once a month closest to payday after my mechanic recommended it, before that I thought it was a gimmick. Bit harder to justify now were about £1.50 a litre mind!
