What kind of isuzu rodeo requires premium?
Click to expand...

The kind where the owners manual calls for 91RON fuel?
My 95 6vd1 3.2L V6 runs 9.8:1 compression, is a non interference engine, is all aluminum, and calls for 91RON.

To me that's premium. And 9.8 is pretty high to run lower grades in.

Real world testing, 83L tank, 400km on 87, 650km on 91.
I mean hey cusz, you can tell me I'm wrong but. . . But you don't drive it.

Bro.
If you fill the tank with premium, the tank of fuel will be worth more than the whole car.

And yes everything is 106% better in the US.

Much as that makes sense, and the math follows for using 87, why does my vehicle see such better economy on 91?

Is it the ethanol in 87 perhaps? I've done the math, 91 is worth 15% more here, sure. But I'm seeing a massive difference in fuel economy running premium.

Overall it really doesn't matter, once I'm healed up from this surgery I'm taking a look at a diesel to put into it. Gas engines and I don't get along, diesels speak to me far more fluently. I've been collecting parts for a while to do this whole monstrosity of a swap.

I noticed better mpg and power with 91 than 87 also. The difference between 89 and 91 is very small in mpg so I use 89 on all my vehicles.


That's the first civil discussion we have had.

I don't like it:flipoff:
