Hi' all :greetings-wavingblue: (..another essay from the Back Benches :sleeping-yellow: )
Yesterday my Z' was given its first truly 'cordon' bleu meal of SHELL NITRO PLUS :clap: ,,having for numerous months been fooling it into believing that my fill up offerings of 'TESCO MOMENTUM' were in fact the gourmet offerings that the fuel world rates as the best distilled Black Gold ! ,,albeit brewed with extra ethanol !
OK OK ,,so I tried to fool my 200 THP stallions into believing that Tesco 99 octane fuel (at a more competitive price) was the 'Real Deal' and far more nutritious than the lesser octane yet superior golden gravy from Shell ,,YES LORD I DID . :shock:
Forgive me THP 200 for I have sinned
SO, now it has from an empty tank had its first meal of Shell's finest as opposed to literally Tesco Finest (the latter being a real quote) and I must say so far the difference in simple smoothness of pick-up unless my mind is now attempting to fool ME too has been noticeable !! :dance:
ECU's act instantly with their array of sensors & measurements of ambient air temp/oxygen density, accelerator position, speed of acceleration, crankshaft position, engine load, petrol/air mix ratios, detonation, exhaust gas analysis etc etc AND constantly change and manipulate all the variables so as to provide the best available pre set criteria for an efficient burn per spark.
There's an immense amount of data being analysed each burn and the ECU making minute adjustments each time, SO its not the engine that takes time to learn the fuel its us the driver as we get use to the engine responsiveness or lack of it in respect of the fuel we choose to feed our engines with !
SHELL NITRO PLUS i applaud you from the bottom of my fuel tank :happy-wavemulticolor:
