Re: 06 Dodge Diesel Engine Shutdown Adventure-UPDATE
Grit dog, I am sure my tank snot was my fault both times. Pumped the wrong tank most likely. My truck ran the first 100k on B100. I made thousands of gallons and used by a variety of motors with no problems. My snot resulted from my pumping some old stuff that should have been put on a bonfire instead. Get a little water and old BD together and snot grows.600Views0likes0CommentsRe: 06 Dodge Diesel Engine Shutdown Adventure-UPDATE
I don't know Wayne, but my sense is it would not hurt. I haven't had a problem in my Honda and I don't run it all that often. I do use Sea Foam in all my gas motors. Now that I have said no snot problem I am going camping, leaving this evening and hope I haven't jinxed myself. The snot problem in my Dodge was severe, three filters in less than 100 miles. Never dropped the tank just sucked the fuel out and thru a filter then back in. That and liberal dose of algecide. I suspect I must have pumped in some old biodiesel by mistake. These days I run a prefilter also.201Views0likes0CommentsRe: 06 Dodge Diesel Engine Shutdown Adventure-UPDATE
So is algecide a emulsifier? Diesel engines around the world use algecide especially in marine applications but I don't know common rail engines. All I can tell you that in the two times my tank developed snot I got rid of it.201Views0likes0Comments
