hey

filled up my corsa with super unleaded (unleaded was out)

went to go some places, and everytime i come to a junction or depress the clutch the engine stalls, am guessing because of the super unleaded.

so do any of you lot use it, and how you had problems?

My corsa is a m reg 1.4 sri 8v

cheers peeps

Only ever used it in my Impreza Turbo because it needed a higher ron rating to stop det. Waste of money putting it in a 1.4 corsa, though I cant see it causing it to stall
