Yes, using substandard o r low-quality fuel can negatively impact your Suzuki Alto’s fuel economy. Low-quality fuel may contain impurities, water, o r incorrect octane levels, which can affect engine performance and cause incomplete combustion. This leads to reduced power output, rough engine operation, and poorer fuel efficiency. In Pakistan, fuel quality can vary significantly depending on the location and the petrol stations you use.

Solution:
To avoid poor fuel economy, try to use high-quality fuel from reputable and well-maintained fuel stations. Premium petrol is generally a safer choice for better engine performance. Additionally, you may want to consider fuel additives designed to clean the fuel system, although its better to start with the right type of fuel.
