Nissan Patrol 4x4 (Africa)

Quick question guys what fuel are you putting in, to your petrol Patrols (lets keep the oil burners out of this they run on an oily rag anyway ) Up here on the reef I have always put in 93 (it uses so much I try to save penny's where I can) Would there be any advantage running it on 95???

Ian afaik the compression rasios in the petrol engines are to low to use the higher octane feul correctly. But let Piet or one of the clever guys explain

"sits quietly in a corner and listens"

I only use 93 because it is cheeper!

95 can't do any harm, but on the other hand you probably won't derive any benefit from it either.

However, if you are filling up here for a trip to the lowveld or coastal regions, chuck in 95...

Ever since I won the lotto I only use 95 in Jhb...otherwise as per Peter.

personally, I haven't found any difference in 93 or 95, so I use 93

On our trip to Giyani this past weekend there was no 93 past Polokwane only 95 was available, wasn't sure if the GQ could take 95

We have only been putting in 95! If there is really no difference and it cannot harm the engine - 93 that is.

Then I should start converting to 93?

Is the 4.8 all good with 93?

Interesting thread this.

50ppm if I'm feeling extravagant!
