OREANDA-NEWS. On 8 September 2009 was announced, that since now, fuel A-92, which is sold in the whole network of "OKKO" filling stations, as well as Euro A-95, is imported into Ukraine from abroad and is desribed by low content of sulphur, aromatic carbons and benzol. Therefore, it is better for autos, the technical characteristics of which allow the use of petrol with octane number 92, than petrol with octane number 95 of poor quality. Low content of sulphur, benzol and aromatic carbons in petrol extends the useful economic life of the engine, protects the system from carbon formation and metal corrosion as well as provides less toxic automobile emissions.
