Eco Fuel

[Diduflutter]

A pertol company in my area have that eco fuel made from god knows what, just wondering if this fuel will hurt the motor? and if it will affect the motor in the long run and or short? atm moment I I fill up with standard unleaded.

[PHANTMXR6]

No. It won't.

When did you have the atm moment?

Bloody sms lingo.

[seventytwo]

When you say standard unleaded are we talking 91 or 95 ron fuel?

in case you mean 91ron fuel its not a good idea, while xr6t can run on 91 it will reduce power a far bit and are you running your generic tunes on 91 as well,

because unless the generic tune is setup for 91 you may be causing damage to your engine

[PHANTMXR6]

Standard unleaded is 91, seventytwo.

Premium is 95ron.

hmm iv never heard of eco fuel b4.. but yeh.. phantmxr6 is correct.. just put the ultimate in.. there was a servey done a couple of weeks back.. they had 3 cars all the same one had 91, one had 95 and the other had the ultimate. the 91 went the least distance and had to fuel.. they worked it out and over a year there was only a difference of $10-20, because u actually fuel up less often with the ultimate.. so id rather pay the extra couple of dollars and know my engine is clean

I've been using unleaded with RON 91, after these comments I'll be changing to 95 it looks like. thanks for the help:)

I understand the term quite well in fact I killed a skyline r33 motor on 91 ron (tight ass, it said premium on the feul cap) and learned my lesson. The thing is eco feul is ron 95 so........is it still ok?

[NYT-SKY]

On a standard engine I guess it would be ok.

But why would you want to?

It seems you have not learned your lesson after blowing up the RB25.

If you really care about you engine, I would use nothing less than 98oct.
