Mixing different petrol grades

freakass SG

Hi guys,

I'm sure many of you are aware of the occassional Shell V-power promotion where you pay only the price of Shell 98 for it.

Just a question.. Are there any negative effects for our cars if we constantly mix 98 with V-power?

If there was, then a warning should come with it.

No harm..

V-power is actually the same grade as 98.. (same octane number)

Just that they add different additives to make it more powerful..

Definitely no negative effect.. It helps to clean your fuel injectors too..

generally mixing diff grades of petrol wont cause any harmful effects to ur car .... unless u're saying mixing diesel with petrol ... that's definitely a no no

Right..

V-power is definitely not higher than Octane 98
