Stupid Shell service station ...

Filled up at Shell (was real low on fuel ... couldn't make it to BP) with their 98 fuel. Stagea has been idling like shit since. And it was right after filling up at Shell. Half the drive home was perfect before then. :ninja:

hahaha never had no drama's with shell you sure you used the red pump and not the green or yellow one

i even thought after running BP for a year and switching back to V-power my car had more guts and i know cubes uses V-power a lot of boys over melbourne and sydney have no troubles with it :D

Doesn't change the fact that the stag only started playing up after my stop at Shell ;) ... and 'yes' I know the diff between red, green and yellow. :D

I use V-Power regulary and havent ever been dissapointed with it. I found the car runs best on V-Power and Ultimate, and some other brand fuels not so much. I got stuck once and had to get 95 premium, didnt have as much guts (by a long shot) as the other ones.

I once made the huge mistake of trying V-Power in my S15 - car ran like a dog and started pinging its ring off. Luckily I had only put in half a tank, so could top it up with decent fuel and some octane booster so I could drive the thing.

I'll grab some octane booster tomorrow. Didn't think of that. Too pissed off at the time ... stopping and lights and missing and shit.

Better still. I'll just ride the Brutale to work tomorrow. :D

Lesson learnt: if its not BP ultimate, then its only half tank of whatever high octane.

MUD crabs eewwww yes i heard that on life FM yesterday, did you get my txt message the other day about reading the advertiser page 18 it was about bikie clubs and getting done by association

yeah got it bud but didn't get to read the paper........just the usual dribble, was it?

I only ever catch up with the Longriders in their rooms on the 1st Frid of every mth but haven't been there lately and they haven't been made 'out of bounds' yet.

If they continue their occasional association with the Jokers they may come unstuck and I'll stop going.

GTR's use a 25 box too its just the series 3 has different 3rd gear sychros

EDIT

Pete they had a scenario of some guy that had 2 cousin or some shit and made a bid story of it was a large article too bit to articulate

    • I think in the modern era we live in, if I were converting a hydro lifter head to solid, particularly when chasing revs, I'd be seeing what I could do to use shimless buckets. Those of us with Neos usually have this persistent niggling fear of a shim getting spat out and ruining everything. Shim-over is...yucky that way. At least the Tomei kit appears to be conventional, but it would still be nice if they'd decided to go shimless.
    • Ok guys thank you very much. GCG highflow it is then 🙂 
    • forgot to mention that when it does this it does not kill the engine, but I have not kept the pedal down long enough to let it, as I see no reason to beat up on it as its got to be something simple, small and dumb causing this.  And as soon as I let off pedal, the engine returns to its normal super smooth operation and rpms re-stabilize quickly, once below 4k. 
    • neither stumble or cut really seem to be an appropriate term....hard to explain its like a rev limiter but at 4k, but it violently shakes engine and entire vehicle as the rpms will not rise over 4k, even with slow acceleration. as soon as it hits 4k, it sounds like entire spark is lost entirely. plugs were 1.1 which I used as such, but later put in new plugs gapped down to .8 changed back after issue arose when I replaced the coils, still does it with either plug gap...damn and it was all running so good.
    • Oh how times have changed! I actually lean it out relative to my water/methanol injector duty cycle. The methanol adds a lot of fueling and you can then lean it out even more due to reduced knock.
