I also use fresh stop on Rabie where I can, helps Fuckall you get 75c back in E-bucks if you fill up at Engen but you pay R1.33 more per liter.
Yeah I haven't found a single Engen with prices under R14/L

Be a little bit more clear about the location of this Caltex on Rabie... Rabie street in Centurion?
If you Google "Caltex Rabie" it's the very first result...
Randburg folk know it well because they advertise their diesel price on lots of billboards in the area

The lower the sulphur, the better.

The sulphur in diesel pollutes the oil which increases sludging and increases wear on the engine.

To combat the decrease in lubricity of the lower sulphur diesel, the refineries include lubricity additives in the diesel. This article includes tests of forecourt diesel that shows the lubrication properties exceed the minimum required: https://www.fuelexpert.co.za/2-stroke-o ... -study.php

Just drive to Dastek Sasol, 10ppm at a lot cheaper. Engens are sharks, especially Elarduspark
