Would be on about my sixth or seventh tank since that post last month, Chook.
It's certainly not the same difference you would expect from premium petrol.
Consumption has stayed the same at around 8.5 litres per hundred ks.
I didn't notice any difference in performance.
The one difference I have found is soot out the exhaust.
On standard diesel I'd leave a big black cloud out back on a heavy kick back, on Vortex diesel, not much at all.
If the price was 12 or 13 cents a litre more, like 98 octane, I'd have to weigh it all up.
But generally I find the price is the same. So I'm happy.
Some Caltex servos only stock Vortex diesel, giving the standard one the flick. That's gotta be a good thing.
Would be good if BP bought theirs into Vic, but that seems in the too hard basket.
