For the last two weeks none of the Shell garages in my area have had Optimax due the Hemel Hamsted incident. Apparently that caused a shortage of normal unleaded so the tankers were prioritised in a different way to compensate. Had to use normal unleaded 3 times and every time i cringed. It wasn't just a mind thing, I really felt the difference. Only having ever put Optimax in my car from the very start it just ran like a pig on 95RON. It didn't pull the same from the lower revs and in the VTEC towards the 7-8K rev range it also seemed to pulling with less urge. Anyway, its back now and I've just filled up. Hooray!!! :lol:
