At the moment driving (107,000KM) '78 VW Golf 1. Filled up with Thomastown Bio on last friday at $1.40. This is the first run on "natural healthy food" for this well preserved beauty so I decided to post if there is any early fillter replacements (decontamination period) and general run in time. It looks like that Thomastown Bio is well balanced and Golf is starting in the morning if not better then before with petro-diesel. Looking forward to hear from anybody interested in sharing ideas and experiance particularly my neighbours from Melbourne. Thanks for reading.

Welcome Zel,
I wouldn't expect you to have any problems with Tom's fuel. I have been running my polo on it since the day after it's 7500 service. I have never had to change my filters outside regular service intervals except when I got some algae in the tank from some petro diesel down in tasmania where you cant by bio

so I would not expect you to have any problems with toms fuel after your decontamination period. Ask them for one of their sticker's for your car to help spread the word.
