TAKUSHI Posted December 16, 2008 Share Posted December 16, 2008 so close to having to tow my car Anyone else pull up at a bp tonight only to find the 98 pumps had sorry out of order tags over them. Yeah i was on boarder line empty and being south of the river theres hardly any close to each other, Drove to 5 different bp's before finding a caltex for their 98 fuel, just coz their prices are going up tomorrow doesnt mean they can shut off supply to much needed fuel Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/249180-bp-doing-the-dodgey/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wogan Posted December 16, 2008 Share Posted December 16, 2008 only BP are hiking their prices tomorrow.. get some caltex 98 octane for ~$1.07 (before 4c voucher if you've got one) Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/249180-bp-doing-the-dodgey/#findComment-4321701 Share on other sites More sharing options...
R33_NICK Posted December 16, 2008 Share Posted December 16, 2008 yeh thats what i heard my cars been running on 98 for awhile now. wont want to go any lower than that. used to run on shell premium then switched to BP Ultimate. actually made a difference when i filled the car up with ultimate.funny ive never seen or heard about shell optimax being used in perth before Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/249180-bp-doing-the-dodgey/#findComment-4321711 Share on other sites More sharing options...
br3ndan Posted December 16, 2008 Share Posted December 16, 2008 only some of the bp are putting the price up.. some are not. For example (These two petrol stations are roughly 5 mins apart) Bp Kardinya Today: 108.xx Tomorrow: 120.xx However Bp Myaree Today: 108.9 Tomorrow: 108.5 Just have a quick glance on fuel watch and you can work out the best place to fill up thats both cheaper and not out of the way.

colt75 Posted December 16, 2008 Share Posted December 16, 2008 but of those that rnt raising their prices, which one will have 98 available at the pump is the question!

br3ndan Posted December 16, 2008 Share Posted December 16, 2008 but of those that rnt raising their prices, which one will have 98 available at the pump is the question! Dnt see why they wouldnt tho. If they wanted to sell it @ a higher price they would of raised it up. The majority of BP petrol stations according to fuel watch arent rasing the prices up tho.. i got half of tank left better start to look tomorrow!!

TAKUSHI Posted December 16, 2008 Author Share Posted December 16, 2008 k from what i gather, they've put the out of order tags on just the 98 so people cant make that last second cheap dash for good fuel, while the tags were out i saw prices as low as 96.7, it was like that at scarborough, innaloo, the leach h/way one and the one off roe h/way on willery rd- this one i was leaving as an s15 was comin in, bet he wasnt happy either. Its almost like how they had the special on the news bout some servo's putting out of order tags on the cheaper fuel pumps so people would buy the more pricey fuel, cheap pricks i say, price per barrell comes down then so should the price per litre, no questions asked!!!

NISZILA Posted December 16, 2008 Share Posted December 16, 2008 My fuel light went on on the way to work. Figured I'd just go on the way home cause there is a BP around the corner from work. They better be available lol. Might not make it home Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/249180-bp-doing-the-dodgey/#findComment-4321807 Share on other sites More sharing options...
