I never let my tank get below half, it’s something I have always done. So this time in,et it get down to a quarter of a tank and filled it up with the premium diesel something I have never done. I was thinking my van is low mileage not been used much before I bought it so will treat it and hopefully it’s good for it. £103 later. I don’t plan on doing it all the time but maybe every three months or so.
Does anyone else do this.
 
I’ve started using ‘non-supermarket’ diesel since getting the van and have used a couple of bottles of additives too just…well….cos….but I’m off on holiday to Holland and Belgium a week on Sunday and for some reason I feel the need to use premium diesel, certainly for one tank. No idea why, but I’m tempted to give it a try while the van is having a really good run out.
 
I just run decent (non supermarket) stuff and a premium once a month maybe .
Our van doesn't get driven hard but doesn't get driven like miss daisy either as that doesn't help things
 
It matters little as there are only 3 ultimate sources of road fuel in the UK. The same areas are fed by the nearest source regardless of the sticker its sold under. For instance, MFG supply Morrisons, BP, Shell, Esso, Texaco. JET, Murco...

The biggest determining factor is the quality of the storage and the diligence with which the tanks are maintained. A busy garage where the tanks are drained and refilled speedily is a much better net than a less busy forecourt.
