[QUOTE="astroboy, post: 377791, member: 4527"] I was at Shah Alam, stop by a Shell kiosk to buy my usual Sampoerna.. So I parked in the kiosk, towards the side where the tanker usually refill the kiosk. I noticed colorful floor caps, green, yellow and black which obviously denote RON97, RON95 and diesel for the kiosk operator to stick in their dipstick to measure the skid tank balance. Towards the side of the tarmac, there's the inlet for tanker to connect their refilling hose to fill up the under ground skid tank, same colorful caps. Towards the back of the kiosk, there's flag pole liked metal rod stick out from the ground which obviously is the ventilation for the underground skid tanks, those "flag pole" too are bearing the same respective colors. I noticed the yellows are all double, meaning they must be using 2 skid tanks for RON95 while one each for the diesel and RON97. The VPower demand for that area should be pretty low, so its not feasible to occupy 1/4 skid tanks. These kiosks are going thru a deciding stage on whether to keep VPower or RON97 for their respective kiosk or keep additional tank of RON95. By the way, my Toyota 1.3L been adapting pretty well to RON95, on the first tank it was a real vomit blood experience, after the 3rd tank, I'm back to cruising above >140 on Federal highway.. the Toyota ECU is a little slow in adapting and optimising of the timing and air-fuel mix for the RON95, now all good! E90 still on RON97.. :p [/QUOTE]
