General Car Chat / Old Diesel Fuel
« on: 20 March 2024, 08:43:31 »
How bad is old diesel?
A few years ago (5 or 6 years?) the oil companies started adding bio-diesel to the mix.
Talk at the time was that the bio content would/could support bug growth That stored diesel would turn to jelly and/or corrode the components in fuel injection pumps and injectors.
What are the chances that a Diesel car that has been stood for 5 years will ever run again?
