My cars pinged twice on the dyno 6 months apart with BP 98 from the same place I want to start ruling things out Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/79320-octane-tester/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is Mobil aka 7/11 still using the Mobil fuels? I've got one around the corner might give that or vortex a crack as the other close BP to me is one of those small dodgy ones.

A friend of mine had the same question so he rang the head office and that's the info he was given Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/79320-octane-tester/#findComment-1210892 Share on other sites More sharing options...
