Re: Trusted Fuel Stations / Petrol Pumps : Trivandrum

I filled up from BP Pump near CCD, Koudiar with almost quarter tank left and without the reserve light even coming on; the guy there pumped in 37.52 liters till auto cutoff! I asked him to stop when it auto cuts before he started filling. Note that tank capacity is 42 liters.

Immediately after the fill up and on the way back i could smell petrol inside the cabin, this means that either the autocutoff didn't work or he kept going after the autocutoff. Before this never have i smelled petrol inside cabin when stopped at auto cutoff.

Re: Trusted Fuel Stations / Petrol Pumps : Trivandrum

The BP Thonnakal pump is one of the best en-route Kollam - TVM. I make it a point to always topup on my return from TVM. Also found the FE average to be slightly more (maybe because of the quantity difference). Also how can I forget the Cafe Coffee Day.

Re: Trusted Fuel Stations / Petrol Pumps : Trivandrum

For the past few months, i was filling diesel from various pumps in the city on different occasions and not sticking on with a single station but then, i noted a significant drop in mileage from 14.5-15 range, i was getting on my i120.I decided to fill diesel from one station always and in search of it, found that the ioc pump between pattoor and nalumukku was very good,in terms of fuel quality and service.On all times after filling the fuel , the attendant had always wished me, which i find very surprising in these times.

Yes,This is one of the petrol pumps with the most courteous staff in the city. The other pumps where you can expect accurate quantity of fuel dispensed inside the city is the Government owned civil supplies pumps.

Re: Trusted Fuel Stations / Petrol Pumps : Trivandrum

What about PTC fuels at Pattom junction ? I used to fill from here and was happy till some videos on whatsapp forward showed adulteration. After that I stopped visiting there, apparently I dont find any bad reviews online

I have filled from these places in the past.

Supplyco pump just before Vellayambalam junction while coming from Museum side

Timber fuels outlet near Jeep showroom on the Bypass

There is also a COCO pump just before Lulu mall on that same side, but they only have XP100
