bp ultimate...

Post by subelover » Sun Aug 06, 2006 9:03 am

hi all, put 40 liters of bp ultimate (horray! we finally get it down here in Tassie) anyway put the ultimate in my mpfi l series tourer yesterday and went for a drive up the east coast....car went great didnt miss a beat and i got 544km off the 40 liters not bad i think, yes it was mainly highway cruising at 100kph but still pretty good its only 4c a liter more so iff i fill my car up its an extra 10$ over premium... mite have to put some new plugs in and advance the ignition timing 2-3 degrees and c if i can get a little more out of her.

anyway cheers Ben

The BP Ultimate and the Shell Optimax are both good fuels that make any Suby go way better. I filled up with Ultimate this morning and did 270km of a club cruise with plenty of spirited runs and still have about 2/3 tank left.
