I have used System G with Premium, premium, as well as normal unleaded in my Wagon-R. Here are my observations.
System G+Premium = No difference.
System G+Speed = engine felt coarse and slight knocking.

After this I fiilled normal unleaded for one month and I felt the car running smoother.

Later I tried again System G with Speed and the car again felt a little bit coarse.

Immediately I filled System G with normal unleaded and I could recognize the smoothness of the car immediately.

It is my observation that, System G with premium fuels doest go well. System G with unleaded is very good.

I agree with Ravi. I have used SYS G with Speed and normal unleaded fuel. Experience with SYS G + normal unleaded has been better for me.

[abhishek_rait]

yup agree with the point i have used system g with unleaded on my baleno its actually better than premium petrols .

Gm and Ford advise use of system G along with 91 Octane fuel aka premium fuel only is written on the rear glass.

I thought it was system g + normal fuel. the 87 oct.

Been using system g + oct 87 for initial 20k km. For past 11kkms it is shell super. No diff in FE, power or smoothness.

If you are using Shell fuel, then there is no need for any fuel additive... unless your engine is running heavy mod's and needs an octane booster.

Shell fuels are very good in quality and using any additive like Iftex or Sonax etc can just be a waste of money.

Use the additives when you are filling in regular fuel, and especially when you fill up on highways as it can be adulterated.

As in my earlier post i fill up regular fuel from IOC with Iftex SystemG or plain regular fuel from Shell without adding any additive.

Yes, I never used any additives or system g with shell super. System g only went with bpcl regular.

I have noticed on my baleno, low-speed crawling on 2nd with a/c, car starts jerking slightly, forcing me to rev up. I use Power one tank after every two tanks of plain unleaded. SHould I be using System G+unleaded?

On any petrol bunk. It costs around 250 Rs per bottle. 1ml per liter of Petrol. (or is it 2?)

Not in ANY petrol bunk. Iftex System G is ONLY available in Bharat Petroleum outlets.

1ml per liter is the recommended dosage.

Alternatively try Sonax injector fluid. Costs around the same or lil more but fill in not more than half the contents in a tank full. Repeat this once every 5000 kms.

Hi Cooddude,
You can get SYstem G at BP outlet opposite Sangeet Theater in SEcunderabad. I could not find in any other BP station in hyderabad, except above. It costs Rs.250 per bottle and you need to add 1ml per one liter of petrol. I suggest you to use System G with only unleaded petrol. No need to add systemG with premium fuels.

I own a 2007 Fiesta 1.4 (Petrol).I tried Speed once and the car returned only 9 kmpl (city driving).I tried Shell Super Unleaded and the mileage has never gone down below 11.5(city driving).The current price of Shell id Rs.59.60 (has gone up twice in April)-Should I stick with using Shell or switch to Normal Unleaded with Iftex SystemG(as recommended by the dealer when i took delivery of the car) ? Please advice.

[simply_sunny001]

System G is meant only to be used with Normal petrol not with Premium petrol.
