Diesel bug treatment

[robertj]

I've recently learned that Jays Fluid treats the bug exceptionally well.
Has any one used this with success?

Perhaps you should consider having a specialised firm clean your tank and polish the fuel before treatment.

You would then begin afresh with a clean system.

I believe the main ingredient in Jeyes Fluid is water. Doesn't seem to be very sensible to add that to your tank. Try Marine 16 instead.

I removed my tank last year and completely cleaned it when replacing fuel sender unit. Though it was spotless before apart from some debis in the bottom I did wonder when told of the Jays trick. I have used the proper fluid to keep the dreaded bug at bay.

Add petrol into the tank; petrol is poisonous to the bacteria that causes the problem; I add 1 lt into a 40 lt tank.

Depends on the bug, all hydro carbons are susceptible, even aviation spirit.

Interesting. But is it not the same as the Racor system?
