Old S#Itter

Featured Replies

i've got an old s#itter of a Nissan Sunny. '84. When i bought it (30,000 - bargain!) the Thai lad said to use gasohol...

Why? I thought.. just cos its cheaper..?

So I did.. and my mpg, or lpk or whatever is RUBBISH!

You recon its ok with good ol' leaded?

No such thing as "leaded" fuel available at regular service stations in Thailand.

Try Regular Benzene91, and listen ot for engine pinging.

Cheers. :)

91..? Not 95 benzine..? i put 91 in my Sonic.

Gasohol will most likely destroy any rubber (fuel lines etc) it comes in contact with, older cars are not designed for it.

So whats the difference between 91 and 95 benzine..? And whats good for the old s#itter?

'Real' 95 is getting very rare these days, try 91 and see how it runs it was likely designed for it anyway.

As noted by previous posters, any gasohol fuels will attack rubber components in the fuel system leading to failure sooner or later.

"I don't want to know why you can't. I want to know how you can!"

84' Nissan Sunny, fuel 91 red and mineral oil for the engine, use gasohol to end it's life quickly.:D
