    Good News! I just heared from the radio that low sulfur diesel will be available at the pumps this coming Nov. 1. This is 2 months earlier than the Clean Air Act specified date of Jan. 1, '04.


    According to the same radio interview, pump prices may increase by an average of 40 centavos per liter. Pero baka daw kaya ng i-absorb ng mga oil companies ang additional cost na ito for us consumers. Lets wait and see. I also think this is one of the reasons why most premium diesel engine oils in te Phil. market are recently being upgraded to API CH-4 due to the new fuel.

    does this mean they'll be posting cetane ratings (or whatever measurement they use) on diesel pumps to differentiate those that have been upgraded?

    Matanong nga pala. Aside from lower smoke belching tendencies, is there any other benefit with low sulfur diesel? Sa engine? Sa fuel economy?
