Availability of Premium diesel

Featured Replies

In area of Nong Buarawe and Chaiyaphum I can not find a station who have premium diesel. How I can find?

I found one ESSO station but not available anymore The price tac was 00.00

Does your vehicle require premium diesel.

I got B10 marked up as a dark blue Diesel sign today. 

You're better off putting a fuel additive to clean your pipes and injectors every so often

No but only once in a time I would use it.

Never tried premium, but I am surprised how much difference there is between brands. On a tank of PTT diesel my car get at most 550km, whereas on Shell I’ll get close to 700.

I use this pump , don't know the name of it. Just when I see this sign I find they usually have premium. Just to emphasise , this is not in the area you mention.

P.S. Where is the contact admin button gone ?

Likely they squeeze in as much of the expensive stuff they can, Regular fill up they do by getting as close as they can to a nice round number for giving change.

My chauffeur company used to pick up Texaco executives. I asked them about fuel sharing one day, and in my rearview mirror they looked at each other and asked me how I'd heard about this.

There are only so many refineries and so many trucks to distribute fuel that regularly these companies fuel up at each other's refineries and purport to be their own product.

So if you want to go to a petrol station and buy their premium product you may be buying somebody else's cheap product!!!

How many litres is 'a tank'? If it is 70 litres, then you are getting 10km/l on Shell and 7.8 on PTT. Not possible unless you are driving differently.

Are you comparing absolutely full to full?

I call BS on that one. Do you have shares in Shell, lol

I do but I still don't buy their fuel as, in the past anyway, it was always more expensive than other local garages.

Every station I have been to - PT, Ban Chak, PTT - has both grades of diesel.

Would be surprised if they are not available nationwide.

Altho' many stations have been pushing B10 since last spring

Kid saying B10 better - I reply B jet krup

B10 is usually cheapest and if the engine is designed to adjust to run on it as is mine no problem. 

B20 was even cheaper but not enough was sold in our PTT around our way so done away with. 

Many old diesel vehicles around out way that need service manual  adjustments so B7 is mostly the one that sells the most.

I'm getting 16.66kpl on my Revo 2018 truck......40,000km, fill up and excel sheet everytime.  I squeezed out 18.68kpl on one tank.......but a single tank isn't a good gauge.

I'm from UK and for me to get more than 19 - 20 to 1 litre in my truck reminds me of the Old jokes of grannies driving there Morris Minors.

Learned to drive in a 47 Ford coupe. 60 HP flathead V8 3 on the tree

It got 25 MPG - or close to 11 Km/L

It weighed 1500 Kg

2022 Revo 4X4 weighs aprox 2000 Kg

Shows how far we have come - NOT 555

It seems there is no premium 100 PROCENT diesel available in Thailand. That is my conclusion.

PTT diesel B7.

I think your right.

Even the "Premium" Diesel has biofuel added as far as I could find out with PTT.

The difference might be some (magic) additives?

B7 should be available everywhere. B7 is standard in other countries too and all Diesel trucks run well on that.

B20 (and B10) are not unconditionally recommended for all engines.

Does Shell V Power have palm oil added?

Just same as all diesel fuels with standard required EN560 from memory.
