Hello Vizzed,

I ain't quite sure where to put this thread as couldn't really find a set space for cars/motorbikes...

I Actually had just an original question I want to ask but just before I do it came to me i could actually make a proper thread on this so others could ask questions about there own cars and bikes as well as discuss there favorite's and dream vehicles.

Right the question I have is:

I have a Skoda Felicia ( X Reg / 2000 ) with a 1.3 Litre Fuel injection engine, and although I am pretty sure it would be okay I'd like to ask for other opinions,

Can i change my fuel type from Unleaded (95) petrol to Super Unleaded (97) petrol safely and comfortably without causing any damage to my engine?

mrexclusivej2p : There was a subforum for cars and automotive as far as I'm aware.  It's further down the list on that main board for forums. But to answer the question: Going from the octane 95 to 97 shouldn't do any damage to a Skoda.  I'd even experiment with it and either run the machine until it is completely empty and give it a quarter tank of Super Unleaded and try it.... or do a 50/50 mix of .5 litre of each and run the bike.

When you switch octanes, you won't see much.  If you go to something completely different, like an E-85 or a diesel, you're begging from problems.

Give it a run.  If the bike takes longer to start up and won't catch with the Super Unleaded, burn the tank to empty and reload with 95.  

Why the switch?

The Skoda is a car fella sorry if that wasn't clear,

And the switch is because the super unleaded is because its spouse to work better at higher rev ranges and i high rev gear change. instead of changing gear at say 2000 to 3500 revs, i change gear between 3500 and 4500 revs.

And wanted to test if the fuel consumption would be better with the higher octane fuel for higher revs
