OK guys, this one has p****d me right off. Filled up my ride Saturday night with petrol. Dumba** that I am, forgot to put filler cap back on. No problemo, straight to H*LF**DS for a replacement, nifty thing, plastic thing with a turnable centre thingy to turn and lock down nice 'n tight. Drove car to work as usual and from nowhere started to run like a pig. Best way to describe symptoms are what I would imagine dirty fuel might do or a blocked something causing fuel starvation. Garage saved my cap so went to collect on way home from work thinking maybe some technology in the factory fitted one. Some venting or breathing issue. Anyway, replaced the cap and guess what?.................. STILL RUNNING LIKE A PIG, symptoms as before. Never had a problem since the day I got it, all that's changed is that for a short while (60 miles) car had a none standard filler cap. I'm stumped. Can anyone shed any light?

I see Shell Optimax is no longer Shell Optimax! It has now been changed to Shell "V Power", it has gone up from 97 to 99 octane!
