Shell provide the best quality in this country easily. Some older engines with less sophisticated ECUs do not adapt to different RON ratings so beware, RON 95 is still pretty good by all accounts. For example an old K-Jet cannot take advantage of 99 RON as it cannot adjust the timing.

NO, but the owner can.  :wink:
