Default My bro put bp 98... response on a post card

My brother put a 1/4 tank of bp ultimate in the car, i always use tesco 99. Is it something i should worry about or is the bp stuff ok, my last car hated it.

Should i whack some tesco 99 in on top just to be safe or add octane booster or something?

Cheers
D

It is the devils spunk that stuff!

Thankfully it's only a 1/4 tank. I would fill up with 99 sooner rather than later. That will at least get the BP crap diluted.

Just got back from topping it up with 99, not a fan of that octane booster stuff, dont trust it.... especially the stuff form halfrauds!

I made him buy me lunch and gave him a lecture about why the fuel matters! Not thrashing it at the moment anyway, can't afford to lol!!!
