It informed – is forearmed. Myths and realities of the

Increasing awareness of consumers and traders in the fuel market, to accelerate its turn towards the buyers.

If the buyer does not have a complete picture of the purchased goods, – it can be easily fooled. The desire of the Government to transform the people in the “electorate” with a pre-ingrained opinion, reduces the formation of the Ukrainians. Why make an effort and something to understand, when it’s all decided for you. Professional drivers, driving school instructors, engineers, motorists are convinced that “the higher the octane number of gasoline, so it is cleaner” and “diesel – this waste of fuel is therefore not a quality.” Every second buyer believes that the industrial automobile giants specially produced low-quality cars sharing the profits with the oil companies, which, in turn, are cashing in on motorists inflating fuel prices. And truth in such statements there.

Naturally, the “global plot” does not exist. First, since 1980 the specific fuel consumption was reduced by half, and is projected to decrease by 2020 from 9 am to 6 l / 100 km. The introduction of environmental regulations for the Euro turned refiners huge losses. Modern “Lomonosovs” understand the importance of public opinion and its compliance with the political situation, for those who control the resources. Therefore, the “gasoline conspiracy”, “global warming”, “exhaustion of natural resources” – all this ingenious ways pumping money.

Faith motorists miracle additives MPG-CAP and the many others that allegedly increase the engine power saving up to 20% of fuel – essentially facilitate their wallets. None of these has not passed official tests on a cycle NEFZ, and according to (ADAC) Universal German automobile club, such supplements not only reduce but also increase fuel consumption by 1.4%. Do not save fuel and additives for motor oil. And in the famous program “MythBusters” Issue number 53 debunked the myth of the miraculous properties of magnetic activators.

Mistake is also the assumption that using gasoline with an octane rating greater you increase the engine power. The vehicle needed to fill the fuel specified in the operating instructions.

Special conversation on diesel fuel. 3.5 million owners of gasoline-powered vehicles, which meet Euro 0-2 can simply pay more for useless for them Premium, is 730 thousand., Similar to diesel vehicles to operate efficiently evrotoplive generally can not. This flatbed trucks, grain carriers, trucks, tractors, special vehicles (military, fire) – Soviet-made. Translation of this technique on evrotoplivo lead to the fact that it will be just more “smoke”, the engine power drops, and fuel consumption will increase.
