anyone got suggestions as to fuel, obviously theres bp ultimate and shell optimax debate, but anyone got any fuel preferences for there motors?
Sunflower oil . . . . . ./thread . . .lol
rapeseed oil ftw (twice as good as sunflower Tongue )

personally for a xud....getting a 'ultimate' fuel would make no difference.

Only ever noticed diff on ultimate fuels on a petrol when tuned for the higher octane

hey i told you about that being thinner lol, ra*e is harder to get cheap, you can't beat a good bit of ra*e at the start of a week though . .lol
regular texaco derv. its the best quality fuel of all the brands IMO. i get a few more mpg's a tank than on supermarket fuel (watered down with biodiesel content)

it also depends alot on the petrol station itself, like how well maintained the tanks are, for example i know that my local shell garage regularly has problems with the tanks flooding, killed a set of points on my mini within 3 miles with the high water content.

i know a few people run on ultimate fuel, but i don't believe it is beneficial to an xud which relies on the sulphur content in diesel to lubricate the pump internals and injectors, ultimate derv has a lower sulphur content for modern high performance diesels (big german cars, jags etc) so not really of any benefit to a 20 year old idi engine

yeah 60p per litre is a bitch Tongue
Using KTC vegetable oil; is actually soya oil, is remarkably thin and cheap
Used to use ktc 18.99 for 20l
you get what ya can with oil i guess...ra*e has been best for me...least noticable diff from diesel
I work opposite ktc!! If only I could get a few barrels a week Tongue
