Fuel Types

[Jeff fae Scotland]

All my cars for the past 30 odd years have been diesels.This is because ive had a caravan on the back of them and needed the torque.

Now this may sound daft to a lot of folk but,ive found using a certain named fuel does make a difference in power and mpg.

They say all fuels come out the same tank.Now this maybe true but,its what the companies put into their fuels that make a difference.

Super market fuels dont seem to have a lot of additives in them, anyway my personal point of view is steer clear of them as they might be cheaper

but they dirty up your engine.Ive been trying a few named fuels in my car just now and this is what ive found.

Shell and BP, gives me the power but burns to fast, not a lot MPG.

Esso and Gulf,I get the MPG and performance so i think i will stay with one or the other.

Ive never ever used Jet as a mate used to run his car on this and said it was a dirty fuel.

Has anyone else noticed a difference in MPG or performance when using any of the above fuels ? and what car did you used it
