EJ25 Premium Fuel

Post by Scoobaru » Sun Feb 21, 2010 9:14 pm

? 1. Does your EJ25 run better on premium fuels, better economy, more power etc.

? 2. Are the cold starts worse on premium fuel.

I have another post; Re: Hard to start which you have replied to AlpineRaven.

I have been advised that EJ25 engines don't start well on Premium Fuels and I am interested on how many people agree.

? Can you confirm that you don't have this issue with EJ25 engines.
