Premium Diesel

[oj88]

The premium part is mostly just having a better additive package and maybe a bit more cetane. That said, it is all relative. In other words, regular Diesel is not bad. Premium is just better. It doesn't matter if it's a jeepney or an Audi, regular vs premium doesn't necessarily matter. Like I said earlier, use the correct EURO standard fuel for the vehicle and you'll be fine.

Don't overthink it or it will just drive you nuts. By the time your choice of regular vs premium fuel comes into play, you've most likely have sold your vehicle.

under construction/renovation yung caltex sa marcos alvarez las pinas, nag dadagdag sila ng underground na tangke, para daw sa "SUPER Diesel", balik tayo sa tanong na sino ba ito mga sasakyan na nangangailangan ng premium diesel kase kaya sila mag bebenta kase may "need/demand"

sino ba ito mga sasakyan na nangangailangan ng premium diesel kase kaya sila mag bebenta kase may "need/demand"

same question. anong local car ba ang nangangailangan ng premium diesel?

^ok update.

did some quick reading. higher cetane rating which cleans the engine.

ako din naman. twice a year kapag may out of town trip, gumagamit ako ng 97 Octane na gas... baka nga naman nakakalinis ng engine kahit papano.

it will just clean the engine a bit, that's all.
some authors recommend a tankful every 6 months.
it has no significant effect on engine performance or km/li figures, daw.

sa gasoline engine madami na nagawa pag aaral dyan kase yan ang ginagamit ng USA, wala epek ang higher octane sa low compression engine lalo na naka bantay lahat ng sensors ng ECU, waste of money lang ang high octane sa mga sasakyan na di naman performance cars (high compression)

sa diesel naman meron high compression ratio na 14:1 to 22:1

sa 1gd-ftv ang compression ratio lang niya ay 15.6:1, so hindi ito yung nangangailanan ng high cetane. ano kaya yung diesel na super high compression???

ang land cruiser 1vd-ftv (v8) diesel 16.8:1

IIRC the old 4D56 in the L300 and boxtype to 2nd gen Pajero was 21:1

yup. kahit naman sa car ko... walang naitutulong yung 97 octane.

pero at least (sana) yung "cleaning properties" nya makatulong.

mukang nahanap ko na ang sagot, isa ay ang isuzu mu-x na may compression ratio na 18.1:1

isuzu trooper diesel compression ration 19.0:1

yan talaga kailanan premuim diesel

kung cleaning lang ay mas okay pa gumamit ng techron fuel additive every 5000 km kase yan proven na...
