I really enjoy all your videos mate, so don't shy away from this kind of content geezer! It was really interesting and informative. Have a good weekend
Thanks mate. I was unsure about this one hence why I sat on it so long and kept adding bits, but it’s out now. I was mainly worried about it looking made up, hence why I did the experiment a few times off camera. Even when I got the same result each time I was still unsure about it lol
I drive fuel tankers. All the fuel comes from the same terminals. The only thing that differs between them is the additives. Costco fuel is delivered to their forecourts with no additive as they add their own on site during the delivery. No two batches of fuel are the same. The density changes daily. Tesco tankers load at the same terminals as Shell and every other brand of fuel. It's pretty much all the same. The basic fuels are Diesel, Unleaded and Super Unleaded. These will be with no additive or additive depending where it's going. If you have a diesel car and only do short journey's avoid supermarket fuel as it has no additive in it and your dpf filter will clog up.
You've done plenty of 'comparison' vids but this one takes it up a notch and a good presentation it was. Obviously I understand you need to tread carefully with this sort of thing but it's now up to us to confirm or deny your suspicions. Great vid thanks.
Thanks mate, and yea exactly. I haven’t come to my own conclusion cos the evidence isn’t conclusive enough, but I have stopped using the 2 fuel stations in question.
I much prefer your intellectual, conversation based output. Always have. It’s much better suited to podcasts too - have you considered exploring that route? Nails need doing though. PS Auto Shenanigans is a great channel 😊 ❤
AS is a great channel, but he missed my exit on the m60 so I’m a bit miffed at him. I did a live phone interview on TV for BBC news once, and then they wouldn’t leave me alone after it asking me to do another for radio etc. I dunno why they wanted me again cos I sounded like a right fucking cabbage when I heard myself back on the recording 🤦♀️
In my standard C1 I find that E5 fuel makes my car smoother, if I put E10 it feels like I’ve always got the wrong fuel in and the car feel poorly…. Mine prefers Texaco E5 bizarrely 😮 Good vid’s, always enjoy the toe taps….. YES 👍🏻
One thing i have noticed having one of my motors in a garage going from E10 to Shell V Power E5 the cold start up fumes smell different...... That could be just me though 🤣 I asked at my local Esso garage about the E10 they were selling and I was told by the cashier the last delivery was only 6% ethanol.....
I'm only running a Fiat Panda with the ancient 1.2 F.I.R.E engine I can get on a steady run on Esso E5 63mpg if I hammer the tits off it down the M180 I'm talking 90mph with the steering wheel shaking it will still turn 51mpg 🤣

Im presuming the 2 u normally use are big lamp and top of Broadway. And the better 1 is Oldham road newton heath/ failsworth area. I’ve not got to the end of the video yet but I’ve heard tuners before saying about some tanks at stations not being clean and having water in them.

I couldn’t possibly confirm, as I don’t want to point fingers that could possibly be considered as slander without concrete proof. You seem to know your way around here well so I’m assuming you’re local, have you used any of the Shaw Shell stations you mentioned, and noticed anything different, good or bad, to the Tesco momentum? 🤔
I tried proving you wrong by watching the entire video, but I couldn't. I ended up just listening to it while fucking about on my phone. Sorry 😔😔 Also, Auto Shenanigans? Yes. I never thought I'd be the type of guy who'd look forward to watching videos of someone talking about motorways, but it turns out I am that type of guy. To be fair though, they are pretty good
You didn’t miss much lol, and yea AS is a great channel. I admit that I was pretty disappointed with this video and have been putting off releasing it for weeks, but this week I just thought fuck it,.. it’s going out 😂
Very interesting. I have a completely untestable theory that I'm currently testing. Modern direct injection engines clog up because people use low RON supermarket fuel. By using V Power (high RON and cleaning additives), my valves will live a long and prosperous life! Or maybe I'm talking total crap and wasting money.
Unfortunately that’s not the main why they clog up on direct injection petrols. It’s due to the fact that the breather, and egr valves basically blow crap back through the intake. Older indirect injection engines did this tooC however the petrol was sprayed in behind the inlet valves and was very effective at washing them off. On another note, I’ve heard of people that run water injection on diesels, that also keeps the inlet valves very clean. I’ve considered fitting it to my Beemer, just to clean the valves tbh.
My experience with Shell V Power in Australia has been very ordinary. I will not go to shell. I have put their 98 in my Falcon twice, the first time was a top up, half tank, car ran badly, second time was in a different city on a long trip and the car also ran badly. BP Ultimate on the other hand always runs nice. Not a good company, but that fuel is great.
In the past I’ve never really rated BP Ultimate, and always preferred Shell. This is the first time I’ve had issues with Shell, but the issue seems to have been going on for too long for it to be a one off bad fill up at the fuel station, and it’s put me off Shell. I use Tesco Excellum in the C1 since and it seems to be as good as the good batch of Shell I used for the test. For diesel I’ve been using either BP, but mainly Costco premium recently and both seem ok. Difference in diesel quality doesn’t seem as noticeable in my BMW apart from when using the standard supermarket diesel which it doesn’t seem to run a smoothly on. I think the difference is just less noticeable in the bmw during normal driving compared to the C1 because losing a couple of bhp on a car with half decent power isn’t as noticeable as losing a couple of bhp on a car where you need most of the power to drive normally though 😂
@@StupidBlokeStupidVideos Haha fair enough. Idk if you have United servo's, but my 06 Pathfinder won't even run on their diesel. Limp mode and SCV problems immediately. I've tested at 2 different location s as well. Also their 98 sent my Ford a little mad, was looking rather lean on the scan tool and finally threw a code a bit later on.
Shell Vpower is up to 5% so it can vary. im not knocking your test methods but the 6% you got could purely be down to slight incorrect ratios, idealy you would have perfectly messured amounts and use a centrifuge to mix it up. so its quite likely your 6% was actually 5%. having said all that very interesting and informative video :)
Of course mate yea, I do realise that my tests aren’t gonna be particularly accurate tbh. I did the ethanol test to see if there was actually a noticeable difference between the two samples that I could get any kind of true measurement of if you know what I mean.
That was an interesting video mate! I see the same video where the tuner actually referenced that Tesco momentum is a more consistent fuel which I will be honest surprised me the most! It does sound like that you or the shell garage in question or the tanker driver put the wrong fuel in the tank somewhere along the line. Let’s hope that it was a one off, I use shell Vpower in my cars because of the ethanol content not being compatible with my cars. Be interesting if you did a follow up. Cheers.
@@StupidBlokeStupidVideos I think I may try it in my Cavalier it ran noticeably worse on Tesco standard fuel back in 2015 will try the momentum one, the engine is carburettor powered so differences are noticeable. Cheers mate keep the videos coming.
Interesting video YES! But I have a favour to ask. Has your Sh1tter got Aircon? If not can you make a video on fitting it so that I can see what's involved? Not much to ask 😂 Thanks ever so
Hmm secrets of the motorways covered this last month and your figures are totally different to his. He got much lower ethanol in all the fuel he bought. I think you'll have to start buying a sample to test and then buy a tank worth it to meet your standards. There are many reasons for variation I know of a local garage that had an issue with condensation in the storage tanks at certain times of the year.
Yea, that’s the thing. He tested e10 which came back as 6%. I was testing 2 samples of e5. One came at 3% and the other 6%. I suspect a mix up maybe, but this mix up seems to have been going on for months 🤔
Its interesting you say that, I've got 2 shell stations near me , one is an absolute filthy hole but easier for me to get to . I've complained a few times when they email me their online surveys about it and found out its a franchise but the other station is owned by Shell. I've said before to my friends it never seems to run as well from the shit station. Im on about my scoob not my aygo . Not gonna be happy if it is shitty petrol they're conning us with. I also watched that officially gassed video a while back , that mapper agrees with the Aston Martin specialist saying tescos momentum is superior. Im gonna give them a go soon
Possibly, I’m not one to make accusations or come to conclusions without concrete evidence, so I’m leaving the conclusion for the viewers to decide on this one.
Not likely, they'd get fucked with trading standards/false advertising or something daft. If it's anything like the petrol station I work at (I won't say what company, but I use Momentum 😉) they have people come testing it occasionally too. I would imagine inconsistency is what it is, like the tuner on OG said. They will likely have it right with looking at how much performance they can get just by changing fuel. I tend to think of Shell as the Apple of the fuel world, you're buying a brand. There's nothing special about it compared to say, a supermarket equivalent.
@@Lassitude1001 that’s what I thought too, I would have though that the tanks are filled by Shell rather than the garage. Until recently, I’ve always found Shell and Tesco to be the best but usually stick with Shell cos it’s on my way to work. Tesco seems to have been much better over the past few months than Shell at my local station though.
@@StupidBlokeStupidVideos yeah the people working at petrol stations generally don't touch the fuel at all, at best we do "assisted deliveries" where you'd assist the tanker driver - I've worked at one for over 4y and never had to do it, the tanker driver does it all. Pulls in, connects up, drops fuel, disappears into the night.
Seen a number of ‘tuner’ type videos about fuel and their consistency. It was found Tesco 99 to be the most consistent and V Power to be one of the least - bit like you’ve found. Tuning a car close to its max and then switching to an inferior fuel, can cause all sorts of running problems, and worst case pre-ignition! Anyways, enough of my bull sh1t and back to your scientifically measured experiment 😂
Yea, seems not just to be me on this one. I’ve since noticed that it usually seems to be “Hoyer” tankers I see delivering to Shell stations too, but I don’t know how relevant this is
@@StupidBlokeStupidVideos I’ve seen them filling Shell stations too, but can’t say I’ve noticed anything else filling them though. Keep up the good work!
Not relevant for my diesel merc but ive bought a 1978 T2 Camper so need to only use E5 fuel. So i need to avoid asda, and ur putting me off Shell Vpower, so will need to look at Essos E5 ??
Youl have to go back to the questionable garage after a week and see if its any better. Might just be a bad tank of fuel they got delivered. Be interesting to see if that garage is consistently worse even after new deliveries. Bet theyve mixed normal in with the vpower or summat. Diluted it like 🤷♂️
Power ..............power is good , but its nothing without control . I enjoyed the science part ,, it was better than a dandruff shampoo add by far. well by a bit ok not by much maybe not at all it wasnt very good booo it was rubbish.
That's insane. I used to have a 50k mile 59 plate C1 last year, done 20k miles in it and only ever managed 320-360 depending on how I drove. A lot of lads with the same cars doing deliveries claimed 400 and they weren't lying. 450+ is unreal.
I drive it like I own it! Keep it well serviced and no need to thrash the engine. I use super unleaded which makes a big difference to economy. I also put a spacer bung on the second O2 sensor which seems to free up the exhaust quite a lot. Otherwise, it's standard.
