Is it safe to use Woolworths fuel?

i reckon its rated at 85 ron hahahahha!

Can you use it? well that depends. when you open your fuel cap, does it say "Premium unleaded only", or does it say "put some water, kerosene, metanol, ethanol, paint strippers, piss, milk, **** put anything in if you dont give a shit about how your engine runs or if it lives"

If its the second, then go for it!

Would you shop at Wollies for your engine oil?

Anything that is price driven has quality issues from the start in order to remain profitable!

You get what you pay for and if your not carefull you'll end up paying for what you get.

p.s. Optimax tastes the best!

the woolies servo we met @ for the bobbinhead cruise had premium 98 rated fuel.

No idea how well it is though.

Really? i didn't realise they sold that....well there ya go...

i haven't gone near a woolies servo since i got the Skyline, I just assumed they didn't have any 98 stuff.

I used to go there very occasionly in my old car and just use the normal ULP....but it was NOT a performance car lol

they had a big sign saying it...

whether it's really 98 is another thing, but then again, you don't know the RON rating @ the pump in a shell/BP/mobil servo either.

i know they used to use cheap malaysian import fuel when they first started, dont know about now. I filled up once with their lpg in my older car coz i was running on vapour, and as soon as i restarted my car it was farked, and drove like crap until i filled up with some other lpg.

I would never use that crap again

Never trusted it, never used it. If they can sell it 2c cheaper, then they must be buying some cheapo bodgy fuel. A fiend told me that when they have the 6c "special" they actually buy some cheap crappy fuel.

Guys ive worked in the fuel industry for about 3yrs and safeway fuels are EXACTLY the same as what u find at Caltex as most of them buy of the caltex newport terminal, BUT! in some cases they could get there fuel from Mobil in yarraville which would mean there premium is the same as mobil 8000, what u have todo is when your driving past your local safeway or any fuel servo that is, is stop when the fuel tanker is there refueling,and ask the driver where he loads up at,dont worry they will tell you most of the drivers are great guys. I used to get free fuel from the drivers lol and also free avgas and anything else i wanted
