Petrol stations in the southern parts of South Africa were forced to stop selling their unleaded 95 petrol due to issues with the fuel.that numerous petrol stations were told to stop selling the fuel known as Mogas 95 after motorists complained that it causes paint stains on their vehicles.
However, it then said on Thursday that petrol stations could continue selling whatever unleaded 95 petrol they had in their tanks. “They are refusing to take responsibility and pay back retailers,” said one retailer. “And yet this was a faulty product supplied by them.” SAPIA executive director Avhapfani Tshifularo said the issue was being taken seriously — including sampling and testing of the petrol in question.
While these have a significant upfront cost, they pay themselves off over time, with inland LPG prices averaging between R12 and R13 per litre.MyBroadband recently researched the value of LPG conversions and used the Suzuki Dzire as an example.A driver who averages 1,000km per month would save approximately R530 per month — or R6,400 per year.
