I'm not talking of improving supply and having cheaper pricing. This is about having cleaner fuel.

Just from my time looking into combustion chambers over the years, it's clear quality of fuel here is not great. Lots of impurities.

More posts to come.

Those using performance cars are spending even more buying octane boosters and injector cleaners at each refill…
Some Cars will send their owners back to village in this Tinubu regime.

Personally, I prefer dangote petrol than that rubbish red sold way back. That red fuel gives my engine a rattling sound at the top reduce engine power.

My observation though

Observe

To buttress the point on the low quality of fuel, here are pictures from the combustion chamber of a car I examined. Car was bought Tokunbo.

This is the 1st footage upon getting the car. You can see there are no brownish impurities

2nd examination after a couple weeks on our petrol... You can already see some impurities developing as highlighted.

Current look of the piston top after more time on Naija fuel diet. The amount of brownish impurities is just horrible. This is not even up to 2 months after getting the car

I had to start using a fuel system cleaner that comes in a liter and you add in aliquots to every fill up. This is the only thing keeping my car from having knocks after every couple thousand miles.

Totally agree with you.

I now only buy from stations I know that carry Dangote fuel. Still observing. I was buying from MRS one day and asked the attendant to dispense a sample into a clear bottle, stuff was colourless!

After some time,the piston rings would get stuck and then it will start smoking and burning oil. Best way so far is to soak pistons crown and chamber with atf and thinner.it will vanish and remain like toks or even new. Dangote fuel is here to rescue us. Red fuel,green fuel will cause black thick carbon and will block piston rings. From there,u with mechanic go dey play hide and seek...... naija fuel is bad for generator car engine,Injectors,rings...just name it

The results are in!
Very clearly, Dangote's fuel is the best in the country.

PICTURE 1: Top of one of the pistons from my 2017 Accord. I was getting fuel from NNPC and other rubbish outlets when I took this borescope shot. The piston is coated with brownish impurities from the fuel. I think it's from heavy sulphur content of the fuel.

PICTURE 2: After my first tank of Dangote fuel bought from MRS filling station. You can see the brownish stuff is being cleared from the piston crown.

I think NNPC outlets have some of the worst fuel.
