Shell V-Power NiTRO+ vs Cheap Gasoline. Is it better? Let's find out!

Channels like these actually deserve to be monetized.

I like how you say cheap gas. In Europe it's called less extremely expensive gas

This is the best comparison/test channel on YouTube, bar none. Especially if you value honest, non-biased, no b.s, straight to the point, no beating around the bush good information. Every minute of all your videos are informative, and do not waste anyone's time. In a society that has such short attention spans, this format works perfect, and we appreciate all the work you put into making it that way!🤙

All grades of Shell gasoline are top tier. Therefore I would like to see you repeat this test using Shell 87 octane instead of Vpower. Thank you for consistently turning out awesome videos!

One of the hardest working content creators on YouTube. Thanks for all your information.

Neighbors must be like "man does this guy ever stop cutting grass???" Awesome videos man. Keep em up!

After being a subscriber for several years, it’s great to see an older video to see how the thoroughness and quality has been maintained throughout the years (or improved) while still maintaining the channel’s original roots. Excellent job Todd!

I can’t tell you how much I appreciate your videos! You were speaking to my heart when you said, “You want your engine to be in tip top shape and last a long time.” All gearheads can definitely relate to this statement and also folks who just want their engines to last long and be reliable. From what I was taught in auto mechanic school, higher octane fuel resists combustion compared to lower octane fuels. High compression performance engines and/or forced induction engines can benefit from this in order to avoid knock or premature detonation due to high pressure, which leads to high heat. No reason at all to use high octane (premium) gas in an engine that calls for 87 octane. The inner mechanic in me does recommend using higher octane fuels in engines that calls for it in order to respect the design of the engine and all those engineers who worked tirelessly. My teacher who was an elderly man and in the business for ages recommended Techron and I trust his words.

Neighbours: "What the hell is that noise?" "Oh, it's just the neighbour mowing his garage again."

"I have to wake up soon tomorrow." Also me at 1:30am: which gasoline is better?

The slow-mo shot up the carby trumpet is one of the best shots ever 👌

I love this guy, he invests a lot of time on questions I am interested in

I love how he goes through the effort to make the tests fair and scientific, Going to buy new spark plugs, Running old fuel out of bowl, Running The space heater, etc. Love non-bias content like yours, big supporter and viewer of this channel!!!

I’d love to see a test on how shell gas effects an engine long term vs cheap gas. I’ve been using shell only for over a year now and could tell a massive difference over running a mid tier brand. Acceleration is quicker and a lot smoother, and the engine feels like it’s healthy. Would definitely like to see an in depth test. Keep up the amazing work man!

Two thoughts: 1. When measuring things like fuel, it is much more accurate to use weight than volume. 2. The cleaning effectiveness should be measured over a much longer time frame. It is possible that an expensive fuel would continue to clean, keeping deposits down, while a cheap fuel would continue to build more deposits.

"ok, we're still at 100 psi." I love how frankly and succinctly he addresses comments.

Difference is that Vpower tastes better

I have never really cared about cars, tools, or 90% of the things you generally BUT I love your videos. Your back catalog has been an absolute pleasure to watch.

The whole point of v power is that it has a higher octane and thus more resistant to detonation. This generally means when tuning an engine, more power can be achieved without causing damage to the engine. Shell promotes more mileage and cleaning because most people don’t understand the issues of detonation (or care) but they are swayed with getting more miles per gallon.

Your neighbors probably think you just really like mowing your lawn with all these videos.
