ive given up on 98ron so i now look for BP Premium or Mobil Premium, that is still a bitch!!

NO! dont give up the dream!

man my car ran like a dog on the 2nd last batch of 98 i got. i cant bear to imagine what 95 would be like. might as well just piss in your injectors.

im considering using octane booster regularly. lost one of my engines from detonation, anything to prevent that happening again...

Yep, drove from Vaucluse to Hornsby via Homebush and not a single servo had 98.

Eventually found some on the way back at Thornleigh at the Caltex there..... unbelieveable!!

If you want 98 close to Vaucluse, go to the caltex on old south head road near the blair st intersection (across from where the golf course starts)

I have filled up with 98 from there in the last two weeks without an issue.

I just got effed in the A... rocked up to the servo on the main road and they had traffic cones blocking the driveway!

And a truck probably filling the bowsers... though the driver looked shonky... I think he knows we're onto them :)

Sorry to burst your bubble, the new shell and bp pumps actually give read outs to customers how many litres have been seen pulled through the pump, the 98 stuff is like 100,000 ontop of the rest..

Grannys love the power in their excels too..

To add to your quest for fuel Vortex is avaliable, its got more power in it too :)

thats precisely the problem. boat drivers (sailors?) with delusions of grandeur(powah).

quote macarthur chronicle mar25:

"...like many in the community i am struggling to make ends meet. Filling up my 2003 Holden Commodore...

...My car runs best on Shell fuel...

...I went to the Mt Annan station and every single premium unleaded bowser was 'out of fuel'. The only fuel available was the cheap ethanol blend which i will not put in my car."

Currans Hill

so there you have it.

the problem is actually struggling family men stealing our 98ockers to waste it in their bombodore bongo wagons. i hope they are enjoying the improved performance and the increased inflation due to their spurious spending.

what a jerk-off.

Hey, all the servos i've been to have about 100-200,000 more litres on the 91 clocks. The second most used is 98. 95 is the odd one out. Tight arses (or for Dr Doof, tight A's :D ) don't wanna spend extra on it, and performance drivers and bogan drivers alike won't allow the energy crises to defeat us!!!

Maybe all the burnouts i hear at night are those grannies in their stock excelboxes.

so there you have it.

They mustn't be struggling if they can raise a family of monkeys AND pay $1.60/L on Thursdays!

So erm, has anyone actually heard WHY there is no premium fuel? The last one I heard was that the refinery at Kurnell or wherever had to stop for a day which delayed the supply of fuel for two weeks or something... But i dont think that is related to this because that was a while ago.

Anyone heard anything else?

A catalytic cracker malfunctioned, and while it was temporarily shut down, they decided to do a scheduled shut down of the entire plant for up keep or whatever the f**k reason... it was going to be a few months later, but they decided to push it forwards...

They were also going to import V power Racing I believe to cover losses...

i was going to the 24hr mobil on the hume highway (m5) at pheasants nest, and yet even that not is OUT OF ORDER! found vortex 98 on blaxland rd campbelltown, although i feel awful putting that shit in my car.

no one could expect this to kill imports, or rather, performance cars. how easy is it to buy octane booster? just inconvenient and a bit pricey.

+1 for the whole situation being ludicrous.

what about adding tolune to the mix?

well if worse comes to worse i will add toluene, as found in many octane boosters. but i shouldnt bloody well have to. is it my fault? why should have to pay for it? why cant i just be provided with 98octane fuel at so-called "service" stations? last time i checked we werent a 3rd world country.

      my current daily - BiTurbo Diesel SQ5 8R with a remap and some light cosmetic mods. Which is sitting in front of my old daily that hasn’t been driven in 7 years now, home to numerous redbacks no doubt. MK4 Golf GTI with a boser hood extension, air ride airbag suspension, factory RHD Xenon’s from the Japanese R32 and stubby electric mirrors (also from Japan) sitting on custom made 18x10” Work Meisters for the golf’s bolt pattern and offset. one day I’ll revive it as a project, pull the engine out, put some forged bits in, chuck a big turbo on it and tune it to somewhere around 250kw and call it a barn find to make millions off YouTube views. Till then, it is a good breeding home for redbacks and the boot is good for storing my Christmas tree for 11 months of the year.

      Misfire/stalling issues

      By Chris_Guthrie · Posted

      I got another MAF and installed it. Idle misfire was still present. Finally got the tank low enough to refuel and did so. Did a short drive to warm the car up and no issues, pretty short drive. Going to attempt soon to take a longer drive to see. I don't think the MAF fixed it if anything, definitely thinking it was fuel related. As soon as I put fresh fuel in the car felt so much better. But, still need a longer test drive to verify. I'll report back once done.  I'm definitely going to be getting monitoring and tuning parts soon as my next upgrade (decided on the link after talking with my tuner), just been real tight with just purchasing the car and sudden onset of issues. I've also ordered a new exhaust stud kit and gasket to fix that obvious problem. Once it's back up to par I'll start with the goodies
