Will give very little benefit in a 1.4. It supposedly burns better and helps to cleanse the engine in the process. I always use it in my 172.

 

[tommyboy]

Might do, give it a go

 

[Els]

Yeah i use it in my 182 as well

Your ECU hasn't been mapped to run anything higher than 95 Octane Fuel so it shouldn't make any difference really.

However, the cleaning additives they add to the higher octane fuels may help your car to run smoother.

The decision as ever is yours.......

LOL

Been using V-Power in mine for a while now and get better fuel economy from the car using it.

Yeah agree with you on that! I go through arround £15 a week when using high octain, but go through £20 when using normal petrol....

 

[DuncCup]

is Tesco 99 better than V-power for a 172?

nope, V-Power is considered the best pump fuel.

on a side note....

Tesco uses the highest percentage of bio-ethonal in its fuel, compared to other fuels!

You've gotta remember though, if you plan on using the higher octane fuels for the cleaning benefits, then you've gotta run through loads of tanks of it before anything happens.
I wonder if it would be better just to buy the fuel additive stuff you just pour into the tank.
