Bio-fuel act, implemented na ba?

[denier13]

Kasi kahapon nagpa-fill ako sa petron, then nakita ko yung printed announcement nila na starting May 6 the bio fuel act will be implemented. Therefore tinanong ko yung gasoline boy kung pre-blended na ba ng biodiesel ang diesel max nila, then sabi niya opo daw nung may 6 pa! Then pumunta ako sa Caltex kung mixed na din ng biodiesel, eh sabi sa kin wala daw. I don't know sa Shell kung pre-blended narin.

[garyq]

yes since the 6th of May. All diesels have 1% bd pre blended na.

[IMm29]

yes since the 6th of May. All diesels have 1% bd pre blended na.

+1. Yup, as of May 6, mandated by law, diesels now have 1% bd.


denier13,

what caltex station was that? perhaps the gas boy was not informed of this?

[av8or5]

hmmm..hindi ko alam eto ha.. nice..ask ko nga the next time i gas up.

[XTO]

kaya ako april 28 ang last blending ko ng 1% bioactive + diesoline ultra.

add'l. info. just called shell baler cor west ave. where i usually filled up
my xto.. good that the girl who answered is fully aware about the bio fuel act
and said that their diesoline ultra already contains 1% biodiesel.

i asked her saan galing ang biodiesel nila? galing daw sa used cooking oil hehe
anyway she also added na after 2 years gagawin nang 2% blend. ayos!

Next year it will be 2% and all Gasoline fuel will be pre blended of 1% as far as Shell is concern.

Did you guys feel the difference? Ako I can feel it. After one full tank feel na feel ko ang enhance performance ng Innova ko.

denier13,

Along Aguinaldo highway, yung malapit po sa SM Baoor. Pero sa tingin ko nga hindi nya alam kung pre-blended o hindi kasi nung tinanong ko sya medyo hindi sya sigurado. Thanks for the confirmation BTW!

[cocoy]

is this law supose to be implemeted all over the country? i mean the whole philippines?

yup, i think misinformed lang yon, i dieseled up sa caltex along quirino hiway and the gasoline boys are all wearing caltex diesel b1 chalecos.

next stop, 10% ethanol gasoline

[userfriendly]

I asked my uncle who owns a caltex station. He said all diesel includes 1% bio diesel. Halo daw sa depot.

[ghosthunter]

next stop, 10% ethanol gasoline

good or bad, ethanol gives LOWER fuel milage than gasoline.

[drey]

10% ethanol is what engines need. Not 20%. But the Ford Explorer can run 70% +.
It gives better performance, cleaner emissions, and better mileage.
