Shell announces Super Premium gasoline

I just need them to quit putting bullshit ethanol in the fuel, premium enough for me if that happens.
 
Sunoco or VP 100 unleaded please. $7.99 a gallon but it gets the job done 🙂 never mind the c16 etc we used to put in our DSMs in the 90s
 
Does it have the ability to keep the valves of my DI engine clean? If so, I will probably buy it. Probably not though...
 
V-power nitro plus, at least in Europe is 99 RON, 89 MON, 94 AKI.

The nitro+ is probably just marketing speak for amine detergents, probably a proprietary Mannich condensate, which are the best group of gasoline detergents available. A polyetheramine is also a possibility, but these are not terribly effective in GDI engines, so I wouldn't expect them in a new product.
 
From what I can gather, it looks like there are a lot more friction modifiers in the gasoline version.

It's a DI engine. Explain how the detergents ever reach the top of the intake valves....

The valves crave its top tier magic formula. When you crave something you will find a way to get it, as will these valves. :colbert:
