Rust in fuel

Ya you can use gas. Just make sure you protect yourself rubber gloves and goggles. I know that is silly to some and was to me when I was young, but working in the oil field has changed my tune.

Don't worry about left over gas a small amount won't do anything to a tank of diesel. In the winter we use to mix as much as 40% IIRC gas in with our diesel to keep our tractors running if we ran out of kerosene.

Very interesting info there. I’ve never heard that before. Cool :cool2:

Ok thanks. I hear you on safety. I've been a mechanic for 15 years now always wear gloves around oil and gas. I don't work on diesels much besides my own but know gas in diesels can cause major issues. I figured just residue would be fine but didn't want to assume it and find out later it was a bad idea
