On diesel pumps now there is a sticker posted about low sulphur fuel. How will this effect the older diesels? Will there be an additive we will have to use like when unleaded gas came out? Will the newer engines, made for lower sulphur, not run on the higher sulphur fuel?
Bio-desel, I am assuming, will be blended with the #1/#2 fuel. Will diesel engines continue to run with this blend. Blending fuel in the winter time is a common thing today. #1 fuel is more for warmer climates and the farther north #2 is blended to help thin out #1, is this correct? Esp. in the winter season. I am, also assuming with the newer models of diesel engines, 2000 and newer, all fuel systems have in-line heating capabilities. Is this correct?
With all the construction happening with alternitive fuels, our fuel supplys will undoubtedly, have these additives. How is all of this going to effect the older engines?
Thanks, Darwin
