Manny, Those price differences are crazy, it really helps to keep an eye out for well priced diesel, then try fill up there, but it has to be convenient or semi-convenient

The lower the sulphur the better!

Sulphur pollutes the oil, so if you're running 500ppm you should definitely change oil every 5000kms.

10ppm is cheapest in my area, so I definitely use it. I personally also find I get better fuel consumption than when running BP 50ppm.

All the edenvale guys seem to have a good local station. I paid over R16 per litre at a Sasol in tjoeras. The lowest close to where I can utilize it is a Vooma garage in Horizon who seems to be around R 15.30 for 10ppm....

10ppm at a Sasol in Northwold is around R15:30.

Thank you for that one Manny. Think I will start using that garage. They just 2km off the N1 which I commute every day so actually the most convenient by the looks of it...

I work just off 14th avenue on Ontdekkers....

N14/Hendrik potgieter is 16km further daily and no time saving due to Hendrik potgieter being equally congested...

Assumptions.... the mother of all.... :lol:

Nee man! Daar 'n groot verskil tussen die 10ppm wat ek laas week by Sasol ingegooi het en die 10ppm wat ek gister ingegooi het by Vooma! 'n Hele R 1.12 'n lieter verskil! :mrgreen:

The only times I go past 8km/l on the 76 v8 is when using 50ppm.
