    interesting... i wonder if that means any petrol would go off...

    yeah, i found last time i refueled with 98 v-power, my engine seemed to be a bit erratic at low speeds (ie. creeping).

    just refueled with some bp ultimate, and immediately don't have the same problem. *shrugs* re if it is better otherwise though. did cost me over $70 to fill the tank completely ....

    oh, i filled it up with 54.5 litres of petrol, maybe i shouldn't have let that fuel warning symbol stay on for so long

      I can feel when fuel is starting to go off - It's usually around the 2nd/3rd day it's been in the tank - by the end of the week the car feels like it has a prison chain ball attached to it.

      I always fill halfway and fill on the needle before the redline.

        I only ever use SHELL OPTIMAX.

        I've never noticed any loss in power after the fuel has been in the car for a week.

          i have another question!

          so if i were to go on holiday for 6 weeks (which i am going to ), what condition should i leave the car in? i'm guessing from the sounds of what you have said, i should leave minimal petrol in the tank... also, when i get back, would the battery be flat?

          thanks for any responses
