Yes, using low-quality fuel can reduce your Alto Lapin’s fuel economy. Poor-quality fuel often contains impurities and has inconsistent energy content, which can lead to inefficient combustion in the engine. This means the engine has to work harder to produce the same amount of power, leading to increased fuel consumption. Additionally, low-quality fuel may cause carbon build-up in the engine components, such as the fuel injectors and combustion chambers.

Symptoms of using poor fuel quality: Engine knocking, reduced performance, and poor fuel economy.
Solution: Always use high-quality fuel from reputable gas stations to ensure optimal engine performance and fuel efficiency.
