delightful1: I love squirrel die.

7lives: Assembly plant ko national assembly ni. Nigeria have refuse to learn from her past mistakes, Nigeria has been assembling vehicles since Peugeot and here we are more and more auto assembles instead of auto manufacturing plants.
You cannot repeat the same mistake and expect a different result, shalom.

Fynestboi: [color=deeppink] amdist all the korean film have watched i found it hard to pick the best, if i watch one and i tnk whao this one is the best, once i go get another one i would found out the previous just cant stand the new one with, and it keeps occuring... [/color]

akitijackson: me telling her dat wld make us real enemies...dat's wat I'm avoidin tho. I dnt want to sound rude.

9icetoo: I guess you didn't read my post very well. Firstly, lead is one of the heavy metals and a very heavy element. Look up the atomic mass of lead (Pb) on the periodic table. It cannot make anything lighter. Secondly, Wikipedia and Google are your friends. If they aren't yours, they are mine. Google 'leaded fuel' and assimilate the knowledge. You can also check octane rating of petrol while you are there. Lead was added before the eighties to increase the octane rating of petrol. After the eighties, other compounds were introduced to replace lead in petrol. These compounds did the same thing lead was supposed to do and that is increase the octane rating of petrol. The higher the octane rating, the less likely it is for the petrol to pre-ignite and the more advanced an engine can be timed.

9icetoo: I agree that anything that isnt desired in a mixture is an impurity. However, lead does not decrease the octane rating of petrol. Before the eighties, petrol was sold with lead in it to prevent detonation> The lead content actually acted as an octane booster. The advent of catalytic converters made lead in petrol undesirable cos of the negative effect it had on the expensive catalytic converters. Other chemical compounds were formulated to boost the octane rating of petrol. Unleaded fuel is not high octane fuel as you believe. Almost all the petrol sold today the world over is unleaded except for very few petrol stations around the world (i don't think nigeria is included) who sell leaded petrol and they clearly mark it out as leaded so you don't mistakenly put the leaded petrol into your modern car. In fact, the dispensing nozzle on a leaded fuel pump will not fit into the petrol receptacle of your modern vehicle. Unleaded fuel is not for high performance cars alone let alone being only for S series or AM whatever. Higher octane petrol are needed in engines with high compression ratios. The higher the compression ratio, the higher the chance of pre-ignition and detonation which could be catastrophic for the engine. Lastly, the higher octane petrol does not supply the oxygen for combustion; atmospheric air drawn into the combustion chamber through your air intake manifold does.
Honda and Acura cars often have engines with high compression ratios sometimes greater than 10:1. With compression ratios this high, low octane petrol will pre-ignite from the immense pressure in the cylinders. The engine management system detects this as knocks and retards the ignition timing which leads to a loss in power. This effect is what the OP noticed. It goes away once you fill up again with a higher octane petrol. Toyotas seem to be immune from this effect because most toyota engines run with moderate compression ratios. My 1.6 litre honda has a higher compression ration ratio than my toyta camry so i am particularly careful about where i buy my fuels for the honda. I refuel the honda at only Total filling stations.

9icetoo: I think you are wrong here. The impurity in crude oil is not lead. There are a lot of impurities in crude oil from sulphur to water and others. A lot goes on during refining than just heating up the crude and trapping the different fractions. Certain compounds and processes go into the fuel blends to give you the desired octane rating. Our refineries are a bit behind in this process so our fuel is not up to scratch and we do not have any body that enforces the quality of petrol sold here. That is why we see different colors of petrol at the station and experience different MPGs all the time.

Eyop: I still do not agree with your post even though i understand what you mean. It's after refining that you get fuel and who are the refiners of the product in Nigeria for export? You previous post stated that USA imports fuel from us which is wrong that's why i mentioned Crude oil. What Americans and some countries import from us is Crude oil(because ours is the best in the world) which is the raw material and the end product is the fuel. I will agree with your post if we are the ones refining for export to the countries you mentioned in your previous post but that's not the case here.

nelsenhenry: Well said. You don't beg for your money . You ask for it. In the right way though. Just as you don't beg for it you don't go about being all violent just to get it

seunbadmus: You need to eat more sugar sir... why are you this bitter?

nelsenhenry: Very well said. A bad review in my opinion still doesn't mean you tell people to stay away from them. I believe you read the part that says "read the terms and conditions know your right and approach them civilly ". You only get cheated when you don't know exactly what you are entitled to. And I can't remember the generator of this topic say his purchase was shipped. If it's so it's something different entirely. Take legal action after gathering evidences in effect to this and the company still hasn't made a refund or delivered the item as indicated.
Just so u know: I've never shopped on jumia and I ain't got anyone I'm trying to protect as u are implying

seunbadmus: That doesn't discredit Jumia. More positive reports on the average...

jmaine: So you no bin know say touch light rays dey generate heat .

Anyway we thank God for sparing ya life
