Mobil Fuels FAQs
Mogas FAQ
Over time deposits can form on intake valves and injectors that can reduce the efficiency of the fuel delivery into the combustion chamber and consequently the ability of the fuel charge to burn smoothly. Mobil’s detergent additives are added to our branded petrol and diesel grades, available at participating Mobil branded sites & 7 Eleven, in concentrations sufficient to help clean intake valves and port fuel injectors and keep them clean with continued use of the fuel.
Our new fuels help reduce and prevent deposits on intake valves and fuel injectors in order to help:
- Improve engine responsiveness
- Improve emissions and
- Improve fuel economy

Octane FAQ
Unleaded E10 will contain up to 10% ethanol blended with unleaded petrol. The Australian government has limited the amount of ethanol in petrol to 10%, or ‘E10’.
Unleaded E10 fully complies with Australian Fuels Quality Standards and supports Mobil’s proud history of supplying high-quality fuels that you can trust.
The FCAI website includes a list of manufacturer contacts. If you own a pre-1986 vehicle and you currently use an antivalve seat recession additive with your petrol, we recommend that you continue to do so with Unleaded E10.
Many motorcycle manufacturers do not recommend using ethanol-blended petrol in motor cycles. Check your owner’s handbook or call your engine's manufacturer to see if ethanol blended fuels are appropriate for use. The Federal Chamber of Automotive Industries website, https://www.fcai.com.au/environment/can-my-vehicle-operate-on-ethanol-blend-petrol also contains a list of motorbikes capable of operating on ethanol blends up to a maximum of 10% ethanol. The FCAI website includes a list of manufacturer contacts.
In the unlikely event that the water level is too high, it can combine with the ethanol, separate and fall to the bottom of the vehicle's fuel tank. If this happens, the vehicle will not operate properly and the fuel will have to be removed (and disposed of properly) and replaced with new fuel. However, this situation is highly unlikely.

No. It is a condition of Mobil’s Section 13 variation granted by the Federal Government that B20 must not be made available from publically accessible forecourts. This condition was also reinforced in the sales contract and a reminder notice of this restriction is printed on every Mobil delivery note. Failure to observe this condition of the Section 13 variation will render the fuel non-compliant with the Fuel Quality Standards Act 2000.
