I'm going to surprise you but..........yes, from June 14th 2012; "Today the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) – part of the World Health Organisation – announced that it had reclassified diesel exhaust as a ‘definite carcinogen’ – putting it in its highest category (Category 1). In other words, IARC’s expert panel assessed all the available scientific evidence and decided that exposure to diesel exhaust fumes can, and does, cause cancer in humans – specifically lung cancer (although there’s weak evidence they’re also linked to bladder cancer)." This is from Cancer Research UK's blog so make of it what you will. The next thing about Europe.......diesel sales are dropping. I think the UK share of diesel sales is dropping faster than in mainland Europe but I need to recheck that again. Early on diesel was cheap but the engines were rubbish. Engines got better, diesel got better and sales went up meaning governments added more and more tax. Now with small block turbo petrol engines (BlueMotion etc.) petrols achieving almost as good fuel consumption, a smooth quiet ride and <cough> a cleaner environment, sales are now going back up again.

Jumpmanz 5th Gear August 21, 2015 Share August 21, 2015 Ya but it produces the most black smoke and the least power funny thing is they usually give me more mileage. about 30-40km more than shell/esso. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

StefanK Supercharged August 21, 2015 Share August 21, 2015 Not sure why we are talking about cancer now. Found this more simplified explanation as to why petrol prices remain high despite low crude prices, something that other bros have explained before, but my simple mind couldn't understand then.

Wt_know Supersonic August 21, 2015 Share August 21, 2015 (edited) touching $40/barrel and how are the s-hole, si-ham & kotex responding in spore? so, this is the reason? 100 students need blue crayons. And blue crayons cost 1 dollar from the store but you cannot buy them at the store. Someone in your class has a ton of blue crayons and sells them at $3.00. Another guy also has crayons and wants to start selling. The new seller realizes that the people who first bought the crayon have already gotten back in line after they used up their crayon. Once he sees that both he and the original seller can sell crayons at $3.00 and still receive the same amount of customers the new guy doesn't have to compete to sell the same amount as the other guy. Once demand is high enough (gas reaching a point of necessity) you don't need to lower your price. Edited August 21, 2015 by Wt_know 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kb27 Supersonic August 21, 2015 Share August 21, 2015 Try caltex for diesel. It's much better I ever ask caltex their cetane number. It's quite high at 56. Other oil companies don't bother to respond to me. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This forum really a lot of creative people👍 ↡ Advertisement 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
