  • Caltex diesel query

    Hey all,

    Apologies if this has been covered off already but I recently filled up at a Caltex (I normally use shell due to having a fuel card) and noticed they have ‘Truck diesel’ and ‘Vortex diesel’.

    My question is...what’s the difference and would you use the truck diesel in your 150?

    Thanks

    Hi Scrubs

    The difference is the additives in the fuel. These additives apparently reduce engine wear and foaming when filling.
    I wouldn't use truck diesel if I had the choice because I'm a sucker for marketing.

          I monitored my 1VD-fte Injector values for 2 years, 95% of the Time during the first year it was filled with Vortex Diesel Values were fairly steady, after switching to Ultimate Diesel injector values improved 15% and maintained that improvement. Also reduced engine chatter alot some of that was also due to using high quality engine oil

            Hi Guys

            The injector values i listed in another thread are with using BP truck diesel, have now been using it for 12 months,

            Can be upto 15c/ litre difference in price over here

              I get better mileage on Caltex truck diesel. I dose my tank with Nulon injector cleaner so I don't see the need to pay 10+ cents per litre for premium diesel.

              Injector feedback hasn't changed more than +/- 0.2 since replacing the injectors and SCV 80 000km's ago.

                Yep I feel i'm getting better mileage out of Caltex, but still use BP as the engine runs quieter
