    Hopefully that's not the problem and it's something really simple that were over looking.

    After cleaning the tanks out, filtering the fuel we had, changing the fuel filters (for the 6th time in 3 weeks) and putting diesel 911 in the tanks. We've went from 4.2 to 5.0 so..... I'm thinking that the fuel was not the problem :biggrin_25513:

    You could get a oil sample done and it will maybe give you a idea if something is wrong with the motor.
