Petrol Quality/High Sulphur

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   It seems that all petrol now has to meet very strict standards, which include a very low sulphur content. Well that's what we hope anyways. I suppose the likes of Tesco's and other Supermarket retailers would draw more attention than your local street station, and would have to keep their standards high, as they would be checked more often.

	Guys, I new Tesco Petrol Station is being built in Tullamore and will be open after X-Mas. Does anyone have any experience of buying petrol from their other stations in Dublin, and is the quality on a par with other brands ie Esso, Maxol etc ?. I'm just concerned with Nikasil, and high sulphur fuels. Do you think there is anything to worry about ?. Ado
