I filled up my car with standard 95 unleaded petrol from Tesco last week.

Now when my car hits around 2.5k revs it seems to jump about and doesn't run through the revs smoothly. Any ideas why it is doing this?

Only seems to happen when I fill up at Tesco, maybe I should fill up elsewhere.

I would say go else where. I've always had issues with Tesco petrol, in every petrol car that I have had. But, I've not had a problem with the diesel....... yet.

I'd think it's more likely to be a bad batch than an inherent issue with Tesco fuel? I don't think there's much difference between different 95RON fuels; my car certainly runs fine on all of them.

How gullible am I!? For a split second, I believed that site! Then I read the bit about 50RON fuel, for metro and micra drivers. Then I noticed the bit about mail order, delivered through your letterbox. Then I noticed......

Tesco seems to have a history of providing fuel with water in it. Might be worth filling up elsewhere in the future.

Specialist Fuels
Not all vehicles run on petrol or diesel, so at Petrol Direct we are pleased to be able to offer you a variety of different types of fuel for more specialist applications.


Plutonium
Particularly useful for some models of DeLorean sports cars, we can souce Plutonium in both Pu-238 and Pu-239 isotopes (Pu-239 is limited to 9 kilograms per customer).This is shipped from our specialist suppliers based in the formet Soviet Union, usually within 28 days. Please note that some background checks may be required, and due to the hazardous nature of the fuel we recommend that some training be undertaken before using it. It may also be necessary to carry out background checks on potential customers. Please contact us for a quote.

Antimatter
Recent advances in particle research have made it possible to create antimatter on a commercial scale for the very first time. Traditionally suited to deep range space craft, it is actually possible now to fit a compact matter-antimatter annihilation chamber into most larger cars and trucks. Typically, just a few grams of antimatter will be enough to power your car for life. Our specialists will also arrange an engine conversion for you. Please contact us for a quotation.

Crystal Energy
The healing power of crystals has been known for some time - new research shows that they can be used as a source of automotive power too. Working with Europe's leading metaphysicists, we are in the process of creating the right mix of crystals in order to not only power your car indefinitely, but also to spread karmic joy throughout your local community. Coming soon. Please contact us for more details.
Brilliant! rofl
