Just bought a 64 bug

Wondering about fuel.

Have heard that it can be run on premium?

Or is it betta to use an additive?

Premium or Ultimate for octane/ctane and use an additive as well to protect the valves. Remember that the valve saver additives reduce the Octane rating a bit therefore Ultimate is probably best in my opinion.

S'fine :P



It seems to be a topic that one answer doesnt seem to sit well for everyone.
There is a heap of info there - you need to settle your own mind as to what you are happy with

Enjoy your bug.
