DrSarty 90 1 Cars Posted April 12, 2007 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Detonation_in...mbustion_engine "Strike a light...I'm a genius again" (Quote from Red Dwarf). Excellent article. My RR sesh was held back slightly because the operator (Bernie at NTR Slough) sensed detonation. I had s*itty 95 RON fuel in and know full well that my engine needs 98 RON plus. So it's Shell Optimax and Miller's CVL for a 102/3 RON mix next time. Thanks for the link Alex (Mr Bang). Rich Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
