    Would anyone have an idea of what are the Cetane Numbers of Shell/Petron/Caltex/Total/etc? How about sulfur % by weight?

    Also the ratio of parafinic and aromatic hydrocarbons, water, bacteria, and other contaminants, the fuel's resistance to oxidation, API gravity, heat value (BTU content), distillation range, viscosity, cleanliness, corrosion resistance are also important. Kung wala Cetane Number and sulfur % by weight na lang.

    By law we must have diesel with max sulfur 0.05% by weight and Cetane Number 48 min.

    Higher, if I recall right. Don't know how much higher, though.

    Thank you sir niky. Is there a thread here listing both the octane and cetane number of our local gas stations?
