BP actually buys their fuel from shell and then adds further additives to label it as different. So you tell me which fuel is better? If their buying from shell then shell must be the better.

lol the additives help :D
I know this is your first post but please don't post misinformation - not right at all - what do you think BP Kwinana refinery does? It can produce 138,000 barrels a day of crude and makes BP Ultimate.Quote:

BP Ultimate 98 is ALWAYS BP Ultimate - it is not Shell fuel.
Do you have any sources for this information? I am interestedQuote:

So yeah, I'm basically backing up what yfin said. :thumbsup:
I've been using shell for ages with optimax as well but it depends on different servos i guess i ran across filling up at crapy shell servos and my car ran the same problem just dont there again and it should b ok,
Hmm........ thanks..... cos i am doing the research about the fuel and i am really interested to know the fuel of Shell and BP since they are the so-call largest oil refineries in australia
I did search the internet and try to find something but they're all bais and stuff, maybe i gotta try the state library........ to find some articles
well shell fuel made my car lag..
blocked my fuel filter..
and also.. blecked my injectors!
arrghh stupid shell

As stated earlier in the thread, thats not a problem with the fuel itself. There has been a contamination somwhere between the fuel leaving the refinery and the fuel going into your tank. Could happen with any brand.Quote:

what level octane...what they put in it.fine
storage tanks and refineries and stuff tho? wow...hardcore
anyway my 2 cents is that i usually use shell...can't see how it can be the fuel's fault
lucky im reading this as ive only ever used bp ultimate and caltex vortex and i was going to try out optimax but i think i wont now. :)
