[QUOTE="aoch88, post: 523886, member: 8491"] Actually it does :) While the whole point of this "European Emission standard" is to reduce emission, the key to achieving this is also to have a cleaner fuel. It's impossible to achieve that sort of emission standard if you have bad fuel. The car engine only burns the fuel to generate power, it has no function to clean it or acts like a refinery. You can find more details here: [url]http://www.dieselnet.com/standards/eu/ld.php[/url] Fuel standards comes in tandem with fuel regulations. If you look in detail these fuel regulations, it states precisely what you need to achieve a particular EURO compliance fuel standard. The "M" at the end of it means "Modified" because not all countries can follow the exact formula if we take into account the weather and other factors. That is why many countries uses Euro 2M, Euro 4M, etc. It is also true that petrol companies do not publish the actual sulphur content in their fuel but adhering to a particular EURO standard means you need to follow the minimum requirements for it. That said, you will never find a EURO 4 compliance standard with sulphur content of more than 50ppm.
