Where is the key kept for the tank??? could save me a bomb on fuel!


I cannot see them having any of that info there other than 15000litres of Optimax etc.. but worth a go I guess.

I think it is the RON and decaying time of, and the Cleaning process it is suppose to do to the engine that are my two points of interest...

optimax is an 'AVERAGE' of 98.6 ron, not all optimax will be the same octane rating from garage to garage, hence maybe why people are 'claiming' that they have so called scientists testing it and coming out with wacky results.

About all you'll get is the delivery docs, the invoice and a HSE data sheet I would guess.

Been over and spoke to him, didnt manage to get any info worth posting, he did say that shell play there cards very close to their chest regarding 'secret formulas'
He has been questioned by customers regarding fuel content and has put the questions to his area manager who advised him to pass on the customer helpline and web add
Sorry guys/girls not much help in the end
Dave, must be good to fill up downstairs
