    i agree sir.
    sa pajero ko tried caltex. walang hatak at mausok. as in! then visual mo ang color ng fuel ng caltex, looks like pee...

    i use caltex power diesel now. mukhang match siya since i use caltex delo (monograde nga lang, nagkamali kasi ko ng bili ) anyway i have a gallon of delo gold multigrade next in line. i think we can obtain an optimum result if we use same brand of fuel and motor oil. IMHO

    Ideally, yes, since they are formulated to complement each other in terms of performance.

    [SIZE=4]pansin ko lang sa small players mura po sila kaso laging pasang awa sa water content (0.3%) and sediments (0.5%) and these are facts,

    opinyon ko lang maganda sana yung product ng mga small players nila kaso luma na yung mga trucks nila kaya yung mga kalawang ng tangke dumadagdag sa sediments,[/SIZE]
    After I read LHV's post, I decided to shift again to Shell and Petron's diesel and mixed them with biodiesel, this time I'm sure di na imagination ko, humina ang hatak at medyo may usok compared to the diesel of the small players, dito ako nagtataka, alam nating naghihiraman ang mga oil companies ng stock nila, bakit tuwing sa Shell o Petron ako nagpapakarga iba ang response ng engine ko. Could it be that the Big 3 practices Loan and Barrow among themselves and the small players also practice it among themselves too?

    Among the top 3, from our experience, Petron has the best result in our diesel rides.
