I never believed supermarket fuel was different to ordinary petrol station fuel, but dont often get the supermarket fuel.
Other day got a voucher for 5p off a litre of Sainsburys fuel, so went and filled the Punto up. Its a 16v 1.2 Dynamic, always nippy little thing. With the Sainsburys fuel, it felt flat and didnt want to rev, I was wondering if the plugs needed doing as I havnt touched the engine apart from oil and filter changes. Any way filled up where I usually do and all was well again, can only put it down to the Sainsburys fuel!!!! Just wondered if you would get less mpg from the supermarket fill ups. |
Personally I don't think there is any difference Peter, tankers go to the refinery and get filled, they don't have a supermarket crappy fuel point, I've tried running on Shell Vpower and Sainsburys super unleaded, I couldn't tell any difference between them tbh.

Agree Pete, thats what I always thought, but it was noticeable in the Punto.
In the derv, I never noticed any difference, but thats got a bit more grunt to it. Must admit though, I dont use the supermarket fuel very often. |
Another possibility is that the ecu readjusts slightly to different fuels, which may be more noticeable on some engines.

Long motorway trip with enthusiastic country A road driving. They do well considering I love driving the tits off them. Had40.44 MPG put of a trip once and that engulfed a thrash on the M6 toll. So it would have had more but for that. |
