Petrol Brand for Fofi

Which petrol brand do you prefer ?

currently using caltex ron97(rm2.70)..
put in rm30 and my car can travel until 180km..

i sell esso fuel, cant use any other even if i wanted to.

But for argument's sake, esso fuel makes the engine runs smoother than other brands (you know....the yellow and red brand).

you own the pump station?

Normally I prefer Shell then follow by Petronas.

I'm on esso 95......

You never specified which is your preferred brand.

As for me, will let you know next year once I have finished compiling data on all brands (although in an uncontrolled environment). The one that has the best statistical performance will be the brand of my choice. Of course, it needs to be weighed against the power that each fuel gives (that one is based on feel and is more arbitrary).

I prefer Esso..

Tried Shell, engine not so smooth...

Me too. I tried Shell Ron95. Not feeling good as well. I looked at Engine spec., the 1.6L fiesta engine compression is high at 11:1. Does that mean we need higher grade of fuel?

No lah, i'm just a cashier...

esso. got smiles points for me

use caltex no reward point..it is time to change to esso..
my fren said that he used esso for a year n got free full tank at the end of the year..that brilliant..

Both brands are under the same company, ExxonMobil.

Yes use esso hehe. Each RM1 fuel = 1 point, accumulate 1000 points you get RM15 free. Points wont expire unlike bonuslink as long as you swipe the card in a one year period.

how to apply?

1-Go to any esso/mobil station.
2-Ask for SMILES card application form.
3-Fill in your details.
4-????
5-profit

You still need to wait 4 weeks for the forms to process, in which you can still collect those points. You just cant redeem them just yet.

For lost/faulty cards you can transfer any available points to new card but 4 weeks processing still apply.

Have fun

Currently aiming to accumulate 2k first before redeeming for RM30 worth of petrol.

I heard Petronas' mesra card points can also be accumulated from non-fuel purchases.

imma gonna apply today..

I'm not really sure what are the differences but so far I use Shell RON95.

Btw, just curious but what happens if you mix the petrols?

I also use Esso and their smiles card. Not only can points be use to redeem petrol, one can also redeem houehold stuff like detergent powder and even MILO. For me more practical then bonuslink where one have to wait for enough points to redeem items which you deem worth it but sometimes the point expire as we forget about it...

agree on that..

Nothing...simple as that. You can even mix with diesel (no more than 30% total) and still the engine runs, just for argument sake..please dont do that

The only thing that is a big no-no is to mix different engine oil brand/grade.

yup, petronas can redeem petrol as well. but their point system is not like esso. 1k point = rm15. for petronas is 1.3k point = rm10. if i not mistaken la. the point could be less or higher. but confirm esso is cheaper comparing the point system
