    I use PETRON. Ito kasi ang pinakamura na nadadaanan ko. :mrgreen: 1.1 ang grade ko sa last emissions test.

    I used Caltex for about 8 mos, then forced to switch to Shell until now. I don't feel any difference between the two. Malakas pareho.

    BTW, my last emission test yielded only 0.86 ppm, very satisfactory!!!

    for almost 3 years, shell gamit ko lagi kasi nga comparing the physicall appearance ang linaw talaga ng shell diesel. unless mabibitin ako sa fuel sa shell lang talaga nagpapakarga. pero ther'e something i noticed pag petron at caltex diesels gamit ko...mas tahimik yung engine then ang lakas ng acceleration lalo na yung petron...para gasoline engine ang acceleration ng pickup ko pag petron...pag mahina-hina lang ang tsikot mo baka maiwan pa sa karag-karag kong pickup....pansin ko din mas matipid ang consumption ko pag petron at caltex...ave. is 10.3~10.5km/lit. pero sa shell tumatakbo lang ng 9.5~10km/lit...di kaya dahil imported ang diesels ng petron at caltex locally refined lang ang sa shell diesel? in fairness to shell, ang linaw talaga ng diesel nila...parang tubig sa linaw.

    FYI petron imports crude oil and is refined here in the philippines. caltex lang ang nag-iimport ng finished goods among the big 3.

    meron isang dealer ng petron na nagsabi di na daw nagrerefine ang petron dito, imported na daw kasi mas mahal daw mag refine dito kaya shell nalang daw natitira na nagrerefine locally.

    I always prefer shell. I think it is the best choice if you want a better economy.

    It may just be my imagination, but i think Caltex is a lot smokier than Shell.

    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.
