    Napansin ko lang sa isang ad ng seaoil euro 5 complaint na daw ang diesel nila, does this mean na better ang diesel ng seaoil compare sa big three especially sa mga naka common rail na mas sensitive....

    AFAIK, nasa 500 PPM pa ang sulphur ng mga big three which is really jurassic compare sa euro standards. Correct me if I'm wrong nasa 100 PPM ang euro 2 at 50 PPM and euro 4 at nasa 10 PPM naman ang euro 5. Supposedly mas mahal ang low sulphur diesel dahil sa refining process pero sa Seaoil which they claimed na euro 5 same or even lower price pa compare sa big three.

    Any inputs?

    better for CRDi engines, I guess...

    For guys like me that drive old school, all mechanical diesels, it's better to ensure that we have calibrated injectors, good compression and clean tailpipes so that no smoke belching occurs, rather than rely on the innate cleanliness of the fuel being burned.

    Pwede pa kami magpagas ng Minola kung kelangan. Hahaha

    Part talaga ng design ng Isuzu engine ang pagiging mausok. Parang identifying mark na yan eh. hehehe

    have you tried biodiesel? baka di sya umusok doon.

    parati nga ako naglalagay ng 1 liter na biodiesel every full tank para di masyadong mabaho ang usok at mausok. effective naman.

    Yep saw it. I will stick to this since there is no unioil around our area.

    sa marikina around 38.55-38.65. yung phoenix may promo 37.75 na lang.

    well, i guess euro 3 is still better than euro 2 and in seaoil's case slightly cheaper than the big 3 so ok na rin.

    Sir, aside from the lower sulfur content of Euro 3 fuel compared to Euro 2. An other distinct advantage of using Euro 3 fuel compared to the regular diesel of the Big 3 in terms of performance?

    For their fuel prices, I noticed that SeaOil along Commonwealth Ave./Fairview area is cheaper by about .80 as compared to the SeaOil station along EDSA near Quezon Ave. but still their prices are cheaper than Petron.

    I have been using SeaOil for almost 2 months now I guess, coming from Shell and Petron. I have transferred to Petron simply because their fuel prices are cheaper but eventually got hooked since I noticed a difference in terms of performance compared to Shell regular fuels. Then when I saw SeaOil, I tried it also and since I don't notice any difference in performance with Petron, SeaOil has become my station from now on.

    I am not sure if this has any connection with SeaOil's fuels being Euro 3 but I noticed that the smell of the fume is less harsher in the nose. In terms of performance, I can't hardly tell the difference with Petron considering them being Euro 2.

    On our 2011 sta. Fe, engine is more quiet compared to petron turbo diesel. It is also more responsive.

    Kailan kaya mag a announce ng international rating or class ng fuel nila ang big 3....? Sea Oil sounds like a much better option....

Seaoil Diesel Euro 5 compliant...
