Hi Guys
Faced with the traditional winterising job of topping up the fuel tank which is a P in the A, I decided to consult the experts, in this case Hydra International Ltd who manufacture fuel additives and supplied me with my bottle of Anti-Bacterial Additive.
The engineer I spoke to did NOT recommend topping up the tank, and indeed to have as little as possible in the tank for the winter period because modern diesel fuels aren't stable for much longer than a month!
He accepts that filling the tank up reduces condensation but said that in the UK, condensation is not a big problem and what there is can be easily drained off at the primary fuel filter.
Comments?
Cheers!
