Tesco Diesel
muckmoses:
I went out of my way the other week to fill up on BP.
I know I used the Diesel pump I was watched. The price on the receipt was the Diesel price etc.
But the 110 ran like a bag of spanners. £20 worth of Tesco's finest later and it's back to normal. Wont be making that detour again.

I run on morrisons or tesco's as they are the cheapest and close by. But up country when i'm off to a show i always stop at cribbs causway to top up and i go to the shell garage and i'm sure after that she runs better and seems to do better on the M way.

wouldent buy my fuel from tescos not that its any good just cos i think tescos have got to much of a monopoly on our lives in this country.
they made 1.5bn profit and there are no proper butchers left in towns no milk men no proper fruit and veg shops left
its companys like them that have taken the greatnees of great britain out from this country
they treat there staff like dirt.. treat the people and companies that supply to them like dirt ..
they use majority of forieng workers at there rdc sites now which is now having an effect on wages in this area
i would not give tescos the steam of my pxxx
its about time that the goverment stops them now but we know that it aint gonna happen while all you happy shoppers keep linning there pockets with your hard earned cash.
they own 250 houses from 275 that were built in an area close to me and filled them with polish workers working for peanuts and paying high rent on the houses.
all supermarkets are guilty but tescos are the worst and most corupt in doin this
you bet i hate tescos and every think they stand for
rant over regards colin

The additives only really make a difference on modern higher performance engines. Older, inherently less efficient, designs are more tolerant of fuel variations. That's why old Mercs are so favoured in Africa where the fuel is.... err...... variable!
If you are running a high mileage engine, the last thing you want is a detergent washing out all the deposits. It will start leaking straight away!

From what I've seen it's much more down to the garage and how they look after the tanks and deliveries. At least the supermarkets make sure the managers look after things.
A bigger problem is when the garage is careless withe petrol tankers (or has been in the past). If they put 4* into an unleaded tank that can cost a lot of money for a catalizer.
