Tesco Diesel
smog:
Just to add that i worked in a petrol station on a MIS computer and got talking to the manager and apparently they have to check the WATER content and i believe from what i was told that fuel is still saleable and useable at above 8% though most keep it below 4%.
Not that it ends there, because other factors too of such as additives and bad pump calibration, and going 1p over everytime i fill up.
Range Rover Blues:
The way that fuel gets sold by the tanker load between companies menas you have no guarantees whatsoever that the fule you are buying is the brand on the pump.
Lord Shagg-Pyle:
I used to get mine from the local Morrsions, but it has caused blocks in the fuel line. I now go to the nearest Esso.
davidlandy:
most of the fuel comes from the same refinery - used to work at a supermarket , same fuel, different tankers.
Blippie:
Recently filled the tank up at a Tescos in Somerset. Ever since, the exhaust smells distictly different, stronger.
Consumption appears similar, water and oil levels fine, temperature guage steady.
Will be interested to see if it changes the next time we fill up.
Cheers
Blippie
