the only supermarket petrol to use is sainsburys they use BP fuel, all the rest use russian refined crap!!!!!..a bit of inside information there..
I have heard all the supermarkets use ultra low RON russian fuel, RON bumped up with additives. Didn't realise Sainsburys was different.

He He.

I was telling SWMBO about the air quality sensor that puts the climate system into recirculation when the air quality outside degrades. She paused for a second and then asked why they didn't put one under the driver's seat as well, while they were at it.  :-[

I had a real 'eggy' smell in an escort I had. Turned out the alternator was putting out too high a voltage and was gently poaching my battery ::)
