it just means they add less sh*t into the fuel,

Replaces V power and adds more detergents. The end.

 

[oglind]

They've effectively just added this to the fuel:

let me get this right they reduce detergents and add more on the price?

only petrol companys can get away with this

 

[Dal]

No, they've taken V Power, added some more / different detergents and then re-branded it.

 

[gingerdave]

Reckon that will add at least 50 bhp to my Puma...........not

 

[ElDude at Allison Automotive]

'Nitro' branding..lol!

 

[PumaNoob]

I find it interesting that they don't mention octane anywhere. The V-power was 99ron, I wonder if this stuff is the same or lower. I don't give a monkeys about detergents, I need octane!!! :evil: if they've lowered it ill have to start buying my fuel elsewhere.

 

[Dal]

It's still 99 RON.

no one can... its the placebo effect.

i'l just keep bunging in tesco's cack, works the same as any other petrol ive bought!

After a few tanks you might be able to tell if your car has an adaptive ECU.

I could tell you if mine had Tesco 99 or Shell V power in it (or 95 for that matter) by the way it drives after a few tanks.

 

[oglind]

on my other car you can tell the difference between 95 and 99, but it takes a tank and a half for the ECU to recognise the difference

I'll buy it for the extra Shell/Avios points and to use the vouchers Shell keep sending me for even more points.

Didn't Evo or someone actually do a fuel test over 1000's of miles and it turned out that V-Power did clean your engine and reduce emissions etc....

I can also remember fifth gear doing a test and shell v power did make a slight difference and BP optimax did jack s**t
