QUOTE(dares @ Jun 20 2013, 08:35 PM) Sometimes I see those comments about Gaga on FnF, dunno if they are driving the same car as we are/did, especially the recent popularity of Gaga related threads the past few days due to the launch of the SV. Hi Bro...I don't butthurt those who comment on the downsides, you and I know what the car is and what are the weaknesses, but some comments are really » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « Re such ppl, BEST response is NO response! We We accept Gagas' shortcomings...they, however, live in their own dreamworld. .. Period. This post has been edited by zeone: Jun 20 2013, 10:39 PM |

QUOTE(garybenjamin @ Jun 21 2013, 04:30 PM) It is not really ~ as u can see nowadays our car's compression ratio was set above 8.0:1 hence minimum acceptable rate for RON is 95 with AKI 90 minutes ~ ... or else have to add variable valve timing, knock sensors to delay ignition timing to protect our engine ~ Hi Bro... and It is possible to manufacture gasoline engines with compression ratios of over 11:1 that can use 87 (MON + RON)/2 (octane rating) fuel with the addition of variable valve timing and knock sensors to delay ignition timing. Such engines may not produce their full rated power using 87 octane gasoline under all circumstances, due to the delayed ignition timing. So that is why i said higher RON is better especially for stock engine ~ Campro 1.3L has compression ratio of 10:1 Probly dat's why by using RON 97 or a mix of 95/97 gives a smoother (?) & quieter (?) engine...? So if Govt changes 95 to 91, a similar mix wld help our stock Campro...? ps. Since 97 price drop, me hv started mix of roughly 3 parts 95 with 1 part 97... Any Bro has tried similar mixes? Pls share...TQ!! This post has been edited by zeone: Jun 21 2013, 06:53 PM |

QUOTE(dares @ Jun 21 2013, 07:31 PM) The compression ratio is only half the story. The Mazda Skyactiv engine runs on 13:1 but still drink RON95. There are other factors as well as to how low a RON the engine can tolerate Tks a meg, Bro... Feel me need 2read up more 2replace/update those ole skool theories in this ole RAM pack... ATM all me kno is that the ignition timing has 2b changed 2prevent the pre-ignition detonation of the compressed lower octane fuel mix... Me was told that when 97 became premium fuel & 95 replaced it...and my ole gen saga need min 97 2run w/o knocking... |

QUOTE(davidke20 @ Jun 21 2013, 08:35 PM) 10.1:1 is consider high compression Hi Bro YAB! If switch from RON97 to RON95, immediately you'll feel the engine retarded If switch from RON95 to RON97, probably need a few more tanks before the ECU daring to retune the ignition timing back to normal. In the end, what RON also can use. Just need to beware of the detonation. RON is an additive to RETARD the ignition point. Higher RON can mean more retarded flash point(also depending on the fuel type), on the otherhand, Natural Gas has a very low flash point, hence it need higher RON to avoid the NGV tank from explosion by the heat under sunlight. Tks a meg 4abv clarification!! Btw do Campros 4BLM/FL hv such knock sensors so that the ECUs can adjust the ign timing accordingly? When lower/higher RON fuel is used? Or only newer FLXs hv...? TQVM in adv. This post has been edited by zeone: Jun 21 2013, 09:14 PM |

Any capable Bro arnd...? Or can get services @any friendly service station wkshop/lone ranger mech, etc? Juz abt 10 mins per Gaga only!! Yu Bros decide lo... Juz a suggestion nia... |

QUOTE(dares @ Jun 24 2013, 08:30 PM) The seller should be able to hook you up with a workshop nearest to you who can install them. I think that's what they did for zeone who's from the northern states. Hi Bro... Juz for all Bros' info, me din get 2use their dealer/appointed mech here...kinda tarik harga @that time... So me got local authorised SC mech 2install 4me! Actually only asked for RM10 nia... <10 min work nia... But cos CNY season, me gave "red packet" of RM20... |
