Petrol level
So my car is going in to get a full respray due to the hail eons ago...its gonna take bout 3 weeks before it will be ready. Was wondering if i send it in with just a little bit of petrol in would would be fine? because i remembered someone saying someting about the octane level dropping after some time.

It'll be fine. Just fill it up & take it for a good flog when you pick it up.

plus if your that worried and the fuel had already been in your car for a week or so beforehand you can pop a bottle of octane booster in it before you fill
