The new Petron Sprint 4T oils incorporate a specially-designed Thermal Control System (TCS) to optimize the performance of modern four-stroke motorcycles.

Based on extensive research and development, the Thermal Control System (TCS) in Petron Sprint 4T is an essential component in the science of lubrication. The range of Petron Spring 4T oils is thermally stable and will not easily thin out even in high temperatures. Its ability to resist high levels of oxidation prevents oil loss. It also prevents formation of engine deposits leading to oil thickening.


Petron Sprint 4T multi-grade motorcycle engine oils with TCS are available in three-variants: Petron Sprint 4T Extra for reliable and stress-free performance (SAE 20W-40 API SE/JASO MA); Petron Sprint 4T Rider for riding dependability and a cool ride every time (SAE 20W-40 API SF/JASO MA); and Petron Sprint 4T Enduro for racing experience and superior endurance (SAE 20W-50API SJ/JASO MA).

Petron Sprint 4T motorcycle oils have been formulated to meet international standards, as indicated in the packaging. SAE stands for Society of Automotive Engineers, the organization that designates the viscosity grading system for oil. W represents Winter, meaning that the oil meets viscosity requirements for cold weather.

Number 10, 20, 30, 40, 50 indicates the viscosity or weight of oil. Low-numbered oil is thinner than higher (heavier) oil. In addition, the API and JASO markings indicate that Petron Sprint 4T motorcycle oils meet the indicated standards set by the American Petroleum Institute (API) and Japanese Automotive Standards Organization (JASO).

New record is 1,402.4 kms on one full tank of Petron Xtra Unleaded

A new fuel economy record was set on January 18, 2008, in the Petron Xtra Mile Challenge Champions Edition with the winning car logging in a total distance of 1,402.4 kilometers on one full tank of Petron Xtra Unleaded.


Traversing the length of Luzon from Bangui just next to the resort town of Pagudpud in Ilocos Norte, all the way down to the southernmost tip in Matnog, Sorsogon, and then turning around to stop in Bgy. Bonifacio in the town of San Fernando, Camarines Sur, brothers Emilio “Tootsie” and Emmanuel “Mansu” Zayco broke their own prior record in a Honda Jazz 1300 automatic transmission sponsored by Honda Cars Kalookan.

By optimizing the superior fuel economy formulation of Petron Xtra Unleaded and the CVT (continuously variable transmission) technology of the Honda Jazz, Team Zayco Hermanos was able to reaffirm its dominance in Petron’s iconic fuel economy marathon run.

Coming in at second place was The Philippine Star team of Jeff Reyes and Lester Dizon, logging in a distance of 1,323.5 kms. In third place, at 1,318.3 kms, was the BusyBodies team of Roman Floresca and Delfin Perez, assistant business editors of The Philippine Star and Manila Bulletin, respectively.

The other teams competing in the Petron Xtra Mile Challenge Champions Edition also logged impressive distances, making it all the way from the take-off point in Bangui, Ilocos Norte down to Matnog, Sorsogon and backtracking through Bicolandia. Ron and Ronald de los Reyes of AutoReview placed fourth at 1,311.3 kms; Pocholo and George Ramirez logged 1,269.2 kms; Louis and Sheila Ramirez reached 1,267.3 kms; while Jess Garcia and Joseph Javier (DZRH-DZRB team) finished at 1,253.1 kms. The Team of Mike and Grace Asuncion was unable to finish due to a minor accident that caused some damage to their engine.

According to Petron president Kamal M. Al-Yahya, “The Xtra Mile Challenge proves that the superior formulation of Petron Xtra Unleaded delivers the best combination of performance and fuel efficiency. The Petron Xtra Mile Challenge encourages ordinary motorists to be more conscious about fuel economy as getting the most out of every liter of fuel is key to fuel conservation. The real winner of the Petron Xtra Mile Challenge is the Filipino consumer. Every one can go the Xtra Mile.”

All teams drove a Honda Jazz 1300 automatic transmission, with Honda Cars Kalookan, Honda Cars Quezon City, and Honda Cars Shaw as the official car sponsors. Supporting the event were Hewlett-Packard, Certina Swiss Timepieces, Speedlab, Top Gear magazine, and Gadgets magazine. The results were verified by official observers from the national auto club, the Automobile Association Philippines (AAP), and the national motoring press corps, the Car Awards Group, Inc. (CAGI).

Cleaner burn, unrelenting power. These are what motorists can expect from the 95-octane Petron XCS Complete Combustion System, the first gasoline powered by premium organic combustion enhancers.


The Complete Combustion System in Petron XCS is a breakthrough additive technology that works on the vehicle’s entire fuel system to produce significantly improved performance in power, fuel economy, and exhaust emissions. Made from natural materials, the organic combustion enhancer is a special additive that creates a catalytic reaction to produce a more complete burn.

Petron pioneered in cleaning additives when it introduced the XCS with the Xtra Cleaning formulation in 1996 – the first such formulation in the Philippines. In 2000, with the shift to unleaded gasoline and fuel-injection systems, Petron XCS Plus was again the first to introduce Valvemaster, a recession and engine-protection additive. In 2007, Petron set a new standard in fuel with the breakthough gasoline, the Petron XCS Complete Combustion System.

As the industry leader in gasoline cleaning additives, Petron has long known that deposits in the fuel system tend to disrupt fuel flow resulting in power loss. But while other local players have only recently introduced their own versions of “cleaning” gasoline, the Petron XCS Complete Combustion System uses one of the most advanced additive formulations not only in the Philippines but worldwide.

The patented organic additive in Petron XCS has superior detergent qualities, which removes the deposits accumulated in the fuel system and prevents new deposits from forming, thus unleashing the maximum power of the engine.

Moreover, unlike other fuel blends, the Petron XCS Complete Combustion System cleans not just the engine but the entire fuel system, from the tank to the fuel pump to the fuel hose, to the engine up to the tailpipe of your car. Developed with Innospec, a global leader in fuel additives technology, the formulation of Petron XCS is the first of its kind worldwide—after lengthy research and certification from internationally renowned laboratories.

Motorists will also be delighted with the instant improvements they can experience from the Petron XCS Complete Combustion System, which begins to work as soon as you gas up, with a one-tank clean-up guaranteed. Continuous use of Petron XCS will benefit both new and old vehicle owners. It prevents deposits from forming in the fuel system of new cars for optimum engine performance. In older vehicles, it removes existing deposits in the fuel system for smoother response, better power generation, and improved fuel efficiency.

Truly unparalleled, the Petron XCS Complete Combustion System is an environment-friendly 95-octane premium gasoline specially developed for Philippine driving conditions.
